UNSPSC 50322913: Dried mactoum dates

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

UNSPSC 50322913 Dried mactoum dates is a Commodity code covering dried date products that state and local governments procure primarily for school nutrition programs and institutional food service. Recent solicitations show the code reflects broader fresh and dried produce purchasing under institutional feeding contracts rather than a narrow focus on mactoum dates specifically. State and local school districts and corrections departments are the primary buyers, acquiring dried fruits and specialty produce items as line-item components of larger food service RFPs and IFBs. The scope of work encompasses sealed bids for produce and food commodities delivered to multiple institutional locations under firm, fixed pricing with Buy American compliance requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products) and comprehensive vendor qualifications including HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, and insurance certifications.

Recent activity spans multiple states with school districts and state agencies as issuing bodies. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school sites through June 30, 2027.
