UNSPSC 50322912: Dried medjool/medjul dates

The variety of dates known as medjool/medjul dates that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322912 Dried medjool/medjul dates is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows minimal dedicated activity, with the code appearing in procurement systems without clear connection to active solicitations for this specific product line. The two school nutrition opportunities posted in June 2026 — Hancock County Schools (Georgia) and the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) — solicit broad fresh produce and general commodities respectively, neither isolating dried dates as a line item in their published summaries. The State of Georgia and Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) solicitations from May and April 2026 similarly cover broad food and kitchen product categories without itemizing dried dates in the available documentation. State and local governments procuring under this code appear to be school districts, state agencies, and correctional facilities sourcing cafeteria and nutrition program supplies, with purchasing driven by meal planning cycles and inventory management tied to fiscal or academic calendars.

Recent solicitation activity cluster in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, though the geographic spread reflects broader food-service procurement across those states rather than concentrated demand for this specific commodity. The representative opportunities—Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026), the City of Bridgeport's broad commodities RFQ (due June 26, 2026), and TDCJ's cafeteria food products IFB (due May 4, 2026, as amended)—show that when state and local buyers source dried fruit and date products, they typically bundle them within larger fresh or processed food solicitations with Buy American content requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic ingredients for processed products) and firm fixed pricing. No recent solicitation in the source isolates dried medjool dates as a standalone line item or identifies it as a priority commodity, suggesting that pursuit under this code would require close attention to larger food-service RFPs and IFBs where dried fruit appears as a component rather than a primary focus.
