UNSPSC 50347213: Frozen kalamata olives

The variety of olives known as kalamata olives that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50347213 Frozen kalamata olives, a Commodity code, does not reflect material recent state and local procurement activity. Among seventeen recent solicitations tagged under this code or closely related food-procurement codes, none target kalamata olives or specialty pickled items; instead, the posting venues capture broad-based food-service procurement spanning school nutrition programs, institutional feeding, and municipal retail food distribution across multiple states and issuing bodies. The code's abstract commodity name and the work actually being bought diverge substantially.

State and local food procurement activity shown in the recent records concentrates on school district nutrition programs (Tattnall County, Candler County, Colquitt County, Effingham County, Richmond County, Lamar County, Dougherty County, Houston County, and Douglas County in Georgia; Bridgeport and the City of Edinburg in Texas), state institutional food service (Texas HHSC/DSHS, State of Georgia), transit and municipal market retail development (Invest Atlanta), and correctional-facility food service (Oregon Department of Corrections). Issuing bodies span county and municipal school districts, state health and human services agencies, state departments, and special-purpose local development entities. Georgia dominates recent posting activity, followed by Texas and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution services supporting approximately 32,000 meals daily (posted January 21, 2026, due February 18, 2026); the City of Edinburg CACFP meal program RFP for beverages, food products, paper goods, janitorial and nonfood supplies serving approximately 400 children (posted July 16, 2026, due August 4, 2026); Houston County School District's ITB for direct delivery of food, paper, and chemicals with an estimated $14 million annual value and 350,000 cases annually (posted March 13, 2026, due April 17, 2026); and the Texas HHSC procurement for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers, 210 line items, maximum contract value $4.5 million over three years (posted February 26, 2026, bid deadline extended to February 23, 2026). Vendors pursuing this code should examine broader food-service and institutional-meal procurement rather than specialty condiments.
