Most Americans eat some kosher food every day, but chances are they’re not aware of it. Take a walk down the aisle of any supermarket and you will see that the OU kosher symbol appears on close to 70% of America’s kosher certified foods, from the coveted Oreo to the delicious and refreshing Coca-Cola. Over $150 billion of kosher certified products are consumed annually, and spending continues to rise dramatically.
The 
logo has become an increasingly important marketing device, which generates additional revenues by expanding the size of the market. Certification gives a product a competitive edge that makes it sell faster, thus causing supermarkets to favor brands with certification. That also means that certification can lead to an increase in a company’s private label business.
There is clear evidence that a kosher symbol boosts market share, that a kosher product can win more favorable shelf space, and that when positioned next to a competing non-kosher brand, a kosher product will do better by 20%. This data has remained constant even in smaller cities, far from city with heavy concentrations of kosher Jews. (Source: Integrated Marketing Communications.)
