UNSPSC 50302911: Khidri dates

The variety of dates known as khidri dates

UNSPSC 50302911 Khidri dates, a Commodity code, shows minimal direct procurement activity under its nominal scope. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily purchasing fresh produce broadly — apples, bananas, berries, carrots, lettuce, onions, oranges, potatoes, tomatoes, and other fruits and vegetables — rather than khidri dates specifically. The issuing bodies span state correctional departments, school districts, county and municipal health and human services agencies, and regional food service cooperatives. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has posted multiple fresh-fruit-and-vegetable solicitations (IW267376, IW267420, IW267411) to supply institutional food warehouses and facilities; school nutrition programs in Georgia, Wisconsin, Mississippi, and Connecticut are bidding fresh produce for child nutrition and school lunch programs; and state departments of mental health and corrections in Illinois are seeking produce supply contracts. Institutional buyers dominate the recent activity, sourcing produce for inmate, student, and patient populations in custody or care settings.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, Wisconsin, Illinois, Connecticut, Mississippi, and Florida. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's fresh fruit and vegetable supply to Palestine, Texas (IFB IW267376, due October 19, 2026), Snyder Food Warehouse (IFB IW267420, due October 14, 2026), and Wynne Food Warehouse in Huntsville (IFB IW267411, due October 14, 2026); the Illinois Department of Corrections' fresh produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center (RFQ 27426DOCJOLIEB53849, due September 3, 2026, small business set-aside); Madison Metropolitan School District's petite banana procurement (RFB 4162, approximately 70–90 cases weekly, estimated annual value $78,000, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026); and multiple Georgia school district produce bids including Hancock County (IFB #SN002-2027, over 200 produce line items, due June 26, 2026), Dougherty County (40 produce items, due June 16, 2026), and Bryan County (multiple apple, banana, berry, carrot, lettuce, and tomato varieties, due May 27, 2026). Collier County, Florida issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (ITN, due March 6, 2025). The code shows steady but fragmented activity across state-correctional, school-nutrition, and county human-services buyers, with no single dominant purchasing pattern or geographic concentration. Khidri dates as a specific commodity line do not appear in any recent solicitation abstracts reviewed.
