UNSPSC 50537205: Dried non GMO arauco olives

The variety of non GMO olives known as non GMO arauco olives that have been dried for preservation. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50537205 Dried non-GMO Arauco olives, a Commodity code, has no representative recent state and local procurement activity. The most-recent-opportunities dataset shows no solicitations specifically requesting dried olives or matching the product scope of this code; recent opportunities instead span broad grocery procurement (whole-line grocery items for school districts and public institutions), fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, and eggs), meal preparation and delivery services, and food supply and distribution. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local buying.

State and local procurement activity under food-related UNSPSC codes is concentrated in school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food supply. School districts—including Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Bulloch County and Douglas County systems in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Hancock County in Mississippi, Meriden Public Schools in Connecticut, and Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi—are the primary buyers, soliciting comprehensive grocery, fresh produce, and food-supply contracts via IFB and RFP with response dates spanning April through July 2026. States and counties also procure meal services: Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB (HHS0017449) for food and consumables at a state-supported living facility with a historical value of $1.5 million, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida is seeking senior meal preparation and delivery services under an ITB with an estimated three-year value of $17,832,659.90, and the City of Dallas posted a competitive sealed proposals request for comprehensive meal delivery to municipal events. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases and the State of Georgia both solicited broad food-supply categories. Activity is heaviest in the Southeast—Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi—with additional solicitations in Connecticut, Virginia, and Texas. Dried Arauco olives as a distinct product line do not appear in any of the recent solicitations reviewed.
