OUR ORIGINS
A local need inspired a broader mission.
Kosher Michigan began in Metro Detroit in response to growing interest from local food establishments seeking kosher certification. What started with a single bagel shop and bakery quickly evolved into a regional movement, connecting more businesses to kosher consumers through transparent, inclusive certification practices.
OUR REACH
Certifying across North America—and beyond.
Today, Kosher Michigan certifies a wide array of food vendors throughout the United States, Canada, India, and the Middle East. The Kosher Michigan hekhsher (seal of approval) is now recognized on shelves in major supermarkets and specialty food stores across the country and internationally.
LEADERSHIP AND ADVOCACY
Pioneering a modern approach to kosher certification.
Kosher Michigan is committed to promoting a more open and transparent kosher certification industry. As part of its mission, the organization challenges monopolistic practices and advocates for a more inclusive, consumer-friendly approach to supervision. Through public education, thought leadership, and community engagement, Kosher Michigan continues to lead the way in reshaping the kosher landscape.
