UNSPSC 50522908: Non GMO khadrawi/khadrawy dates

The variety of non GMO dates known as non GMO khadrawi/khadrawy dates. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50522908 Non GMO khadrawi/khadrawy dates is a Commodity code. The source contains no recent state or local procurement opportunities for this specific date variety. The only opportunities posted under or near this code span fresh produce procurement by school districts and other state and local entities, but they solicit for bananas, apples, berries, vegetables, and a broad range of commodity fruits and vegetables—not khadrawi or khadrawy dates. One Madison Metropolitan School District opportunity is tagged as "Petite Bananas" (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026), and multiple school districts across Georgia and Texas are actively soliciting fresh produce, but none name dates or this UNSPSC code as the intended category for dates.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual procurement activity in the recent-opportunities block suggests either a data classification issue or minimal current market demand for this date variety among state and local buyers. School nutrition programs, which dominate the fresh produce opportunities in the source, focus on commodity fruits and vegetables suited to institutional meal service rather than specialty or imported date varieties. If your firm supplies non-GMO khadrawi or khadrawy dates to state or local food service operations, opportunities under this specific code do not appear in recent postings, and pursuing general fresh-produce contracts with broader varieties may offer better near-term traction.
