UNSPSC 50387722: Nicoise olive purees

The variety of olives known as nicoise olives which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50387722 Nicoise olive purees, a Commodity code, encompasses shelf-stable and prepared food products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations—school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, veterans' homes, and state health and human services centers. While the code nominally describes a specific olive product, recent state and local solicitations under this code show procurement of a much broader range of shelf-stable food items including canned fruits and applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, proteins, dairy products, condiments, and consumable supplies. The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia, Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia, Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia), municipal school districts (Austin Independent School District in Texas, City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), and specialized state facilities including veterans' homes and state supported living centers. School districts and state institutional food services are the dominant repeat buyers under this code.

The most active recent procurement appears concentrated in the South and West, with notable activity in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, vegetables) due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy for September through December 2026, posted August 19, 2026 with proposals due August 24, 2026 on both brand-specific and brand-or-equal bases; Oregon Department of Corrections' invitation to bid for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with bids due July 31, 2026; Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps posted June 26, 2026 with proposals due July 16, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education's invitation for bids on fresh produce for school year 2026-27 with bids due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport's bid for 115 line items of commodities for the Board of Education Nutrition Center with submissions due June 26, 2026; and Texas Health and Human Services Commission's invitation for bids on supplemental food and consumable products with responses due March 19, 2026, representing an estimated potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content for processed products appear in school lunch and institutional food service solicitations; Oregon and Georgia apply state-vendor preferences; and most institutional buyers require firm fixed pricing, liability insurance ($500,000 to $2 million), compliance with USDA and FDA standards, and delivery to designated facility locations within specified timeframes.
