Kosher Certification India (KCI) is a specialized consulting service that supports Indian manufacturers and exporters in securing authentic Kosher Certification from globally recognized Rabbinical agencies. KCI does not issue certificates directly; instead, it acts as a bridge between the company and the Kosher agency, ensuring the entire certification process becomes smooth, fast, and cost-effective.
1. Understanding the Client’s Requirements
Every industry has different Kosher needs.
KCI first studies:
-
The client’s products & raw materials
-
Manufacturing process
-
Buyer requirements
-
Export markets (USA, Canada, Europe, Israel, Gulf, etc.)
-
Scope of certification (products / plant / process)
Based on this, KCI guides the client towards the correct Kosher agency.
2. Helping Manufacturers Choose the Right Kosher Agency
Indian exporters often don’t know:
-
Which Kosher agency is accepted by their buyer
-
Which agency is strict, moderate, or flexible
-
Which agency offers service in India
-
How much the certification will cost
-
Whether Passover certification is required or not
KCI uses its experience to select the best suitable Kosher authority so the client gets maximum market acceptance at a reasonable cost.
3. Complete Documentation Support
Kosher agencies require detailed documents such as:
-
Raw material list
-
Ingredient specifications
-
Supplier certificates
-
Flow chart
-
Cleaning procedure
-
Plant layout
-
Finished product list
Most manufacturers struggle to prepare this documentation properly.
KCI prepares, formats, and submits these documents on behalf of the client to avoid rejection or delay.
4. Application Submission & Coordination
Once documents are ready, KCI:
-
Submits the application to the chosen Kosher agency
-
Communicates with Rabbis/inspectors
-
Handles queries raised by the certification body
-
Ensures all information is accurate
-
Follows up regularly for faster approval
This saves the manufacturer significant time and effort.
5. Audit Scheduling & Support
If the Kosher agency wants a plant inspection (online or onsite), KCI:
-
Arranges the audit date
-
Prepares the client for the inspection
-
Ensures all required production details are correct
-
Helps the Rabbi during inspection to understand the process clearly
This makes the audit smooth and prevents compliance mistakes.
6. Helping Resolve Non-Conformities
If the Rabbi raises any concerns, KCI:
-
Helps the manufacturer correct issues
-
Suggests Kosher-compliant raw materials
-
Guides to alternative ingredients if needed
-
Ensures all compliance points are fulfilled
This prevents delays in final certification.
7. Fast & Cost-Effective Certification
Because KCI handles everything professionally, manufacturers get:
-
Faster approval
-
Affordable cost
-
Zero communication confusion
-
Hassle-free certification
KCI’s experience reduces the overall processing time by a large margin.
8. Certification Delivery & After-Support
After agency approval, KCI ensures the client receives:
-
Final signed certificate
-
Kosher symbol/logo usage guidelines
-
Product list confirmation
-
Renewal reminders
-
Support for adding new products in the future
This is very helpful for companies that export regularly.
