UNSPSC 50352912: Frozen organic medjool/medjul dates

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

UNSPSC 50352912 Frozen organic medjool/medjul dates (Commodity) comprises specialty preserved fruit products that state and local governments purchase primarily through school nutrition programs and senior services operations. The code, however, shows minimal recent direct solicitation activity specifically for frozen organic dates; the recent opportunities posted under this code instead reflect broader food procurement spanning shelf-stable products, fresh produce, and grocery items for school lunch programs, senior meal services, and general nutrition support. When dates do appear in state and local food RFPs, they are typically one line item among hundreds in multi-product food bids rather than a standalone solicitation focus.

The issuing bodies active in related food procurement are school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and state departments (State of Georgia). Geographic activity centers on Georgia and Connecticut, with school nutrition contracts dominating the mix—most solicitations target the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (sealed bids due June 26, 2026); Early County Board of Education's June 2026 food bid requesting approximately 300+ food items with bids due June 8, 2026; and Gwinnett County's October 2026 IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026. Given that frozen organic dates do not appear as a named line item in any of the recent detailed solicitation summaries provided, vendors should expect dates to compete as one component within much larger multi-product food contracts rather than to drive standalone procurement activity.
