Achievability is at the heart of OK Kosher’s mission to bring the greatest amount of high-standard kosher products to market — no matter your facility’s complexity, scale, or location.
Get certified in 5 simple steps
A time-tested framework that has helped 600,000+ products meet our exacting kosher standards, easily and efficiently.
On average, this process generally takes several weeks, start-to-certified.
Application
Your completed application will help us pair you with just
the right Rabbinic Coordinator (RC) from our team of
experts — someone knowledgeable and experienced
with your particular industry and unique food production process.
Initial Consult
Your assigned RC will reach out to learn about your production process and to
outline the basics of OK kosher certification. During your consultation, you’ll
outline what your goals and expectations are with regard to kosher.
Your rabbi will be happy to answer any questions you may have about starting and
maintaining your kosher facility, and can advise you on the best decisions to make in
order to operate according to kosher requirements. This is also your company’s
opportunity to ask any questions regarding the procedures of kosher
certification
Quote
You’ll receive a quote in the form of an annual fee. This usually covers
your entire kosher certification package including the year-round visits.
OK Kosher fees are flat — they aren’t based on how many products you have,
or on the size of your output, but on the overall certification program
you’ll need. We’ll determine your fee based on the scope of work that’s
required from us to certify your company to the highest standards in the industry.
Site Walkthrough & Ingredient Screening
With your go-ahead, one of our New Certification Specialists will walk you through
the process of submitting the needed information about your raw materials
and ingredients. Simultaneously, we’ll arrange for a visit to your facility to observe the
operations. Your RC will make all the necessary plans and procedures to create and
maintain a kosher setup for your production, with both the utmost level of kosher
standards and your company’s benefit in mind. He’ll also train your staff to facilitate
the upkeep of your “kosher program” in the easiest way possible.
Agreement
Following your site walkthrough, we’ll draft and send you your official contract.
This will include the terms and conditions as well as payment required
to finalize the kosher certification process and maintain your certification program.
Sign, return, and you’re good to go!
Congratulations - you’re certified!
Your company will now receive its OK Kosher certificates, granting you the
right to display our registered, trademarked OK symbol on certified products
and marketing materials.
At this point, you’ll be assigned an Account Rep – your dedicated contact
here at OK Kosher, who will assist you with any needs you may have
pertaining to your kosher profile, on an ongoing basis.
Your certified products will be listed in the OK Kosher Product Search, on
our website, and in our various consumer media outlets. Enjoy the exposure
and recognition from having a well trusted kosher symbol!
