UNSPSC 50342908: Frozen khadrawi/khadrawy dates

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

UNSPSC 50342908 Frozen khadrawi/khadrawy dates is a Commodity code that does not appear in state and local procurement activity during the period covered by recent solicitations. The code names a specific date variety, but the recent opportunities posted under this UNSPSC show no direct procurement of khadrawi or khadrawy dates. Instead, the opportunities tagged with this code reflect broad institutional food service procurement — groceries for state hospitals and supported living centers in Texas, frozen food products for state institutions, fresh produce for school districts, and general food supplies for county senior services and food-assistance programs across multiple states. The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity scope and the actual breadth of the solicited work suggests either a tagging error in the source data or use of the code as a catchall placeholder within a larger food-service taxonomy.

State and local issuing bodies posting under this code include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple institutional facilities across the state), county boards of education in Georgia (Hancock County, Early County), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia, Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, Head Start of Greater Dallas, the New Jersey Department of Human Services, and the State of Georgia. The recent opportunities span IFBs, RFQs, and ITNs with response dates from May through October 2026. Given the absence of direct market activity in frozen khadrawi dates and the disconnect between the code definition and the actual procurement content, pursuit under this specific code is not recommended without clarification from the issuing body regarding the correct commodity classification.
