UNSPSC 50357221: Frozen organic nafplion green olives

The variety of organic olives known as organic nafplion green olives that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50357221 Frozen organic nafplion green olives is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code do not reflect procurement of frozen organic nafplion green olives or related specialty produce items. Instead, the posted opportunities center on broad food service and nutrition supply contracts — school cafeteria groceries, state institutional dining, child care meal programs, and criminal justice facility provisions — where olives, if procured at all, represent a minor line item within hundreds spanning proteins, dairy, frozen vegetables, condiments, and paper goods. The actual buying under this code designation reflects general food service aggregation rather than a specialized commodity procurement. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under the code include school nutrition programs (Tattnall County Board of Education in Georgia, Colquitt County School Nutrition in Georgia, Candler County Board of Education in Georgia, Richmond County Board of Education in Georgia, Effingham County Board of Education in Georgia, and Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of State Health Services), a city food service program (City of Edinburg, Texas Child and Adult Care Food Program via RFP), a county criminal justice department (Texas Department of Criminal Justice via Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), and an economic development entity (Invest Atlanta). The geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with isolated activity in Connecticut and Oregon.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017798 for canteen and food service groceries to Mexia State Supported Living Center (bids due August 25, 2026), Richmond County Board of Education RFQ #26-204 for comprehensive grocery products across frozen, refrigerated, and dry storage categories for 2026–2028 (quotations due May 27, 2026), the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items supporting the National School Lunch Program (bids due June 30, 2026 through OpenGov portal), Colquitt County School Nutrition IFB for food and paper goods spanning 450+ food items across 13 categories for 2026–2027 (bids due June 8, 2026), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products to multiple TDCJ warehouse locations (bids due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum). No recent solicitations specifically target frozen organic nafplion green olives or imported specialty olives; the code appears misapplied to these general food service aggregations.
