B&W Quality Growers has announced its Kosher Certified status. The company’s value-added watercress, arugula, red kale, spinach and Power 4 offerings have all been certified by Florida Kosher Services.
With nearly 150 years of experience growing baby leaves, B&W now applies Kosher standards to the produce. This includes what the company grows, packs, ships and markets to retail, wholesale, food service and specialty customers throughout North America and Europe.
“Becoming Kosher Certified shows the dedication that B&W has to meeting the demands of consumers that eat Kosher diets for moral and health reasons,” Bob Massave, executive vice president for B&W Quality Growers says. “It’s important that we listen to our customers and take pride in following a specific and dedicated process when it comes to the production of our leafy greens.”
An inspection of all B&W product ingredients, the production facility and the actual production process, approved by a rabbinic organization, ensures all ingredients, byproducts, tools and machinery have no evidence of non-kosher substances.
Look for the Kosher stamp of approval on B&W products beginning this July
