UNSPSC 50332913: Dried organic mactoum dates

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

UNSPSC 50332913 Dried organic mactoum dates, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product category that state and local governments procure primarily as food service ingredients for school nutrition programs and institutional food operations. Recent solicitations show school districts and state agencies sourcing dried fruits and related staple food products through competitive bidding processes. The code sits within a broader landscape of institutional food procurement where school nutrition centers and state prison food services source commodity ingredients to meet meal production requirements and dietary specifications.

State and local purchasing under this code reflects activity by school districts, state education departments, and state criminal justice agencies. Hancock County Schools (Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 in June 2026 for fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year, with over 200 line items spanning multiple produce varieties and specialty items delivered to three school locations through June 30, 2027. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities (including fruit and vegetable products) in June 2026 for the Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center, with 115 line items and a contract term through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia issued a request for bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products (approximately 382 line items) with delivery to six TDCJ distribution points, a response due date of May 4, 2026 (extended via Addendum No. 2), and a contract term through August 31, 2027 with two optional one-year renewals. TDCJ also procured whole pitted dried prunes (Bid No. IW236532, issued April 2026) in U.S. Grade B quality with a minimum order of 1,400 boxes for Delivery Area 1. Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, with school nutrition programs and state institutional food services as primary buyers. All school nutrition solicitations incorporate Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content for processed products, and both school and state prison procurement processes require sealed competitive bidding with firm pricing for the contract term.
