The Good Stuff
Wide variety
The store carries a broad selection of dates and dry fruits, including mixed date-and-nut options.
Small quantities
You can shop here without committing to a full wholesale order; one review says smaller quantities are available.
Seasonal stock
A review notes that new date stock arrives according to the season.
Helpful staff
Multiple reviews describe the staff as helpful, knowledgeable, polite and professional.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm pricing. Ask the salesperson and cashier to confirm the final price before billing, as one customer reported a change within five minutes.
Allow parking time. Build in roughly 10โ15 minutes to look for parking before shopping.
Try smaller orders. Wholesale shoppers are not the only audience; the store reportedly sells dates in smaller quantities too.
Check seasonal stock. Ask what has arrived recently, since a review says new date stock follows the season.
Expect simple packing. If you are buying a gift, check the presentation first: one customer described the packing as plain rather than fancy.

The Bottom Line
Kasco Original Dates is a Ras Al Khor dry-fruit shop that suits shoppers looking for dates in wholesale quantities, while still allowing smaller purchases. Reviews specifically mention exceptionally fresh, sweet dates, a wide variety of dry fruits, nuts mixed with dates, and chocolate. That makes it useful for both regular stock-ups and straightforward gifting, although the presentation is described as simple rather than fancy.
Pricing is one of the main reasons customers visit. Several reviews call the wholesale prices cheap, reasonable or better than outside retailers, and one regular shopper buys around 25 kg of dates, 1 kg of chocolate and 3 kg of nuts each year. However, pricing consistency is a serious caution.
Customers have reported prices changing at the counter, including raisins moving from AED 25/kg to AED 50/kg, as well as an alleged Ramadan price hike. Service feedback is mixed. Many reviews praise helpful, knowledgeable staff, but others describe slow or dismissive cashier interactions and declining customer service.
Confirm the final price before payment and allow extra time for parking; one shopper needed 10โ15 minutes to find a space. Seasonal date stock is another useful point to ask about when choosing what to buy.
