Frequently Asked Questions - Kosher Certification Consultant in Montreal

Why should food companies pursue Kosher certification?
Kosher-certified products access the global Jewish market and a much broader consumer base that associates the Kosher symbol with purity, quality, and clean-label values. Over 40% of US Kosher product purchasers are non-Jewish consumers. The North American Kosher food market exceeds $12 billion.
What does Kosher certification require for a food manufacturer?
Key requirements include: all ingredients must be Kosher-certified, no mixing of meat and dairy products or equipment, certain equipment cleaning and changeover protocols, prohibition of specific insects, and regular inspections by a Mashgiach (Kosher supervisor). We map your product and process against these requirements and identify the path to certification.
Which Kosher certifying agencies do you work with?
We work with leading Kosher agencies including COR (Council of Orthodox Rabbis of Toronto), OU (Orthodox Union), OK Kosher, Kof-K, and others. Agency selection depends on your target markets and product category.
How long does Kosher certification take?
Typically 4-12 weeks from initial assessment to certificate issuance. Simple manufacturing operations using Kosher ingredients can achieve certification faster. We manage the full process from application to first inspection.
