UNSPSC 50532911: Dried non GMO khidri dates

The variety of non GMO dates known as non GMO khidri dates that have been dried for preservation. 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 50532911 Dried non-GMO khidri dates (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains twelve recent opportunities across school districts, county boards of education, state agencies, and municipal governments in Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, and Virginia, but none solicits dried khidri dates or any dried date products. The opportunities span comprehensive grocery supply (Bridgeport, Meriden Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools), fresh produce (Hancock County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System), meal preparation and delivery services (Hillsborough County seniors, City of Dallas events), and institutional food service for state-supported living centers and school nutrition programs. While several solicitations name produce categories in granular detail—apples by variety, berries, citrus, leafy greens, root vegetables, and specialty items—none identifies dates of any kind as a line item or specification.

The code sits at the commodity level within the broader dried-fruit and specialty-produce taxonomy, but the recent state and local procurement record contains no demand signal for khidri dates specifically or dried dates more broadly. School nutrition programs and institutional food service contracts, the primary buyers in the dataset, focus on fresh produce, staple proteins, and shelf-stable grocery staples rather than specialty dried fruits. No RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notice posted in the past six months references this commodity or triggers the code.
