UNSPSC 50322911: Dried khidri dates

The variety of dates known as khidri dates that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322911 Dried khidri dates is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement does not align with the work actually being solicited. The source contains no posted opportunities specifically for dried khidri dates or other dried dates. The recent solicitations tagged under this code span fresh produce procurement (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), dried fruits more broadly (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, prunes, walnuts, pecans), main-line food distribution, and general grocery supply for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. School districts and county boards of education are the dominant issuing bodies, along with state departments of criminal justice, county sheriffs' offices, and individual cities. The geographic spread includes Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Virginia (Fairfax County), Texas (Department of Criminal Justice), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), and California (Santa Clara County).

Representative recent solicitations show the broader food categories being purchased: Hancock County Schools (Georgia) posted an IFB on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut requested commodities including produce, proteins, and dairy for school nutrition on June 2, 2026, due June 26; Santa Clara County, California, issued an ITB on January 28, 2026, for dried fruits and nuts (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, pecans) due February 5, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited cafeteria food products via IFB on May 4, 2026, covering proteins, dairy, grains, and produce across five geographic areas. Opportunities in this code space typically run annual contract periods (July through June) with firm fixed pricing, Buy American compliance, USDA grade or nutritional compliance, delivery to multiple school sites or facilities between specified morning hours, and awards made to lowest responsive and responsible bidders on a line-item or single-vendor basis. The code's nominal scope does not match the recent procurement activity, indicating either miscoding at source or that dried khidri dates are not a current procurement focus under this taxonomy heading.
