KSA Kosher was established in 1993 to address the community’s need for a Kashrus agency that would uphold the highest standards while providing exceptional customer service. Founded by Rabbi Binyomin Lisbon, who had extensive experience working with local agencies, KSA quickly gained the support of over 35 local Rabbi’s in the area.
Recognizing the misconceptions surrounding Kosher certification among manufacturers who believed it simply required a rabbi’s blessing, Rabbi Binyomin Lisbon embarked on a mission to meet with food and beverage producers. His efforts yielded impressive results, leading to the exponential growth of KSA. Today, KSA is one of the largest Kosher supervising agencies globally, with offices in New York, Florida, Shanghai, Jerusalem, and South America. The headquarters is located in Los Angeles, serving the Western United States and beyond.
As a member of AKO (Association of Kashrus Organizations), KSA adheres to the highest national kashrus standards and maintains reciprocal working relationships with other agencies worldwide.
The remarkable reputation of KSA can be attributed to its expert team of Rabbis and staff, with Rabbi Yechezkel Auerbach leading the way. Their expertise has played a significant role in the growth and success of KSA.
