What Is The International Kosher Council?
In the past, getting a company kosher certified in today's ever-expanding kosher market has been a confusing and complicated process - BUT NOT WITH US.

Functioning as an active Kosher consulting agency, I.K.C.'s motivational goal is to serve the kosher consumer by making more kosher products available while at the same time give the company the best match for its Kosher certifying needs.

Our allegiance is to the Kosher Dietary Laws. Our prime concern is that the consumer accept your product, and our guarantee to the company is that the certifying agency and the certification process be economical, supportive, and fair.

I.K.C. will assist in ascertaining which agencies are best suited for your kosher needs and will ensure that your product(s) has universal acceptance while enjoying the best marketing exposure. This advantage can virtually save you thousands of dollars and can enable you to benefit from this thriving and ever-expanding kosher industry.

While it is true that I.K.C. enjoys long-term relationships with the "Founding Fathers" of food production in the United States, we specialize in assisting all companies, large or small, to gain entry into the industry and thereby help them gain in the ever-growing consumer base.

MAXIMIZING KOSHER PRODUCT OUTPUT
Companies interested in obtaining kosher certification for a particular product are often unaware that their other products are or can be eligible for kosher certification. I.K.C. will assess your total kosher-product potential allowing you to fully take advantage of your kosher certification.

INGREDIENT SOURCING
Because of its long term relationships with major food manufacturers worldwide in the specific task of preparing them for kosher certification, I.K.C. has become a major resource in the sourcing of kosher ingredients. I.K.C. will assist you in competitively pricing and sourcing your kosher ingredient needs.

CO-PACKS AND PRIVATE LABELS
I.K.C. will set up your kosher certification and coordinate inter-kosher-agency-relations in regards to co-packs and private labels so that all agencies can shake hands while retaining a recommended certification for the base product. This is particularly beneficial to companies with a large clientele of private labels that need to satisfy their customers' requests for kosher certifications by specific agencies.
