BC Kosher

BC Kosher

The BC Kosher emblem is an internationally recognized trademark of BC Kosher Supervision, one of the primary kosher certification agencies. Only those products and services meeting the strictest standards of kosher law are permitted to display our symbol, which is protected under Federal law against unauthorized use. When consumers see the BCK on a product, they know they are buying foods that meet the highest levels of Kashrus (Kosher law). BCK is directed by a staff of Kosher food production specialists, each an expert in various aspects of the food industry. Always available for consultation are flavor chemists, dairy and bakery professionals, advisers and computer experts. The Kashrus policies are governed by a Rabbinic committee who review and decide all questions of Halacha (Jewish law) which may arise in the course of food production. The BC Kosher has an international network of regional coordinators and Rabbinic representatives, all of them strictly Orthodox in their personal practice. Regional coordinators are based in major American cities, Canada, South and Central America, Australia, Western and Eastern Europe, the Orient and Israel. These representatives conduct frequent visits to major manufacturers and their suppliers at every location where Kosher supervision is needed. Each product or service under BC Kosher Supervision is carefully monitored by regional coordinators, field supervisors and the staff at BC Kosher headquarters. Confidentiality of all proprietary information is assured.
