The Kosher Certification Process:

Qualified, confidential, and reliable,
KIR is your trusted partner in industrial kosher certification.

At the dawn of the third millennium, the food industry is responding to consumer demand and distribution pressure with an ever-increasing number of processed food products. This presents a whole new challenge for the Kosher certification process.
However, thanks to kosher food experts, most ingredients can be cleared for use in Kosher Production, or replacements can be readily found.
