About Empire Kosher:
For us, accountability and traceability begin even before the farm. We ensure the highest quality care and kashrut standards are met from the very beginning…the egg. Empire is different than any other kosher chicken company in the country, in that we hatch, grow, process, package and ship our own products.
We are proud to be a company that supports family farms and raises chickens and turkeys with the utmost care and respect.
