UNSPSC 50322908: Dried khadrawi/khadrawy dates

The variety of dates known as khadrawi/khadrawy dates that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322908 Dried khadrawi/khadrawy dates is a Commodity code covering dried date products procured by state and local school nutrition programs, corrections departments, and other public food-service operations. Recent opportunities reveal that state and local governments source dried dates as part of broader commodity and fresh-produce acquisitions for school cafeteria nutrition centers, corrections facilities, and institutional food services. The work involves supplying specific product grades, packaging formats, USDA compliance documentation, and delivery to designated institutional locations under firm fixed pricing that remains stable across multi-year contract periods. Issuing bodies include state departments of criminal justice, boards of education, and municipal school-nutrition departments; school districts and state corrections systems are the primary repeat buyers under related commodity codes in this family.
