Time to Make the Donuts ~ Kosher!
Orthodox Union Hosts First Ever Baking Industry
Seminar
Keeping kosher no
longer has to mean sacrificing great desserts.
In fact, kosher consumers have become a much sought after market.
From 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM on Tuesday, June 20th the
Orthodox Union will hold a seminar on the conflict between plant
production and kosher concerns. The
event will take place at the new Orthodox Union Headquarters, 11 Broadway,
New York.
The purpose of the
seminar is to show those in the baking industry the advantages of becoming
kosher as well as to provide suggestions and helpful information to those
already following the strict dietary code. The seminar will
feature:
-
Experts
discussing how the OU can expedite the flow of information between its
office and the bakery plant.
-
Experts exploring
production systems to simplify kosher and kosher/dairy production
concerns.
-
An opportunity
for people to share their personal experiences with a panel of
representatives from the baking industry.
-
Presentations by
marketing professionals to help maximize the baking industry’s reach
to the kosher consumer.
-
A tour of the OU
headquarters to see how the system works.
Rabbi
Yoel Schonfeld, Conference Coordinator, explains, “We think this seminar
will have positive economic ramifications for those who attend. In the baking business where new products are constantly
entering the competitive arena and where new companies start up regularly,
making your company available to the kosher consumer is a way to broaden
your market and give you that necessary edge.”
