UNSPSC 50367221: Canned or jarred nafplion green olives

The variety of olives known as nafplion green olives that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50367221 Canned or jarred nafplion green olives is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it do not reflect this narrow product scope. Instead, the solicitations tracked under this code represent broad-based food procurement by state agencies, school districts, and municipalities across multiple food categories—proteins, dairy, produce, frozen items, grains, beverages, and paper goods—serving institutional food service operations including school nutrition programs, state supported living centers, correctional facilities, child care programs, and municipal markets. The actual buying activity spans fresh, frozen, canned, and prepared foods rather than a specific olive product. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Georgia Department of Education), school boards (Tattnall, Candler, Colquitt, Effingham, Richmond County, and Bridgeport), state departments (Oregon Department of Administrative Services, Texas Comptroller for TDCJ), municipal entities (City of Bridgeport, City of Edinburg, Invest Atlanta), and specialized operators (The Boys & Girls Club). School districts and state institutional feeding programs dominate the recent activity.

The geographic spread centers on Texas and Georgia, with additional activity in Oregon, Connecticut, and metropolitan Atlanta. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Administrative Services' pickle and pickled vegetable supply contract (IFB S2910000018089, due October 13, 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's food service groceries for Mexia State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017799, due August 25, 2026, with historical FY25 value of $158,000); the City of Edinburg's Child and Adult Care Food Program meal supply (RFP 2026-017, closed August 4, 2026, with local-vendor preference under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051); the Tattnall County Board of Education school nutrition bid (IFB PE55089NONST2027000000002, due July 22, 2026); and the Invest Atlanta food distribution and municipal market operator RFP (RFP PE66789NONST2027000000021, due August 6, 2026). The code shows substantial activity but appears misaligned with its stated commodity definition; vendors should clarify actual product requirements at pre-bid or Q&A stages rather than assume narrow product scope.
