Italian food producer Coppola Foods has officially renewed its Kosher certification with the Kashrut Division of the London Beth Din (KLBD) for 2025, ensuring the continued supply of its popular tomato and bean products to kosher-conscious consumers. The certification covers several product lines, including Coppola Salerno and Hillfield tomatoes and beans, La Fonte tomatoes, and Fontana Formiello rice and couscous, all produced at the company’s base in Mercato San Severino, Italy.
The KLBD is recognized as the leading authority on Jewish dietary laws in the UK, supervising thousands of products and events globally. Its certification process is known for its rigor, which has helped Coppola Foods not only maintain its reputation for quality but also expand its reach in markets where kosher standards are essential. “KLBD certification has opened new opportunities to market our products and grow production volume,” noted a spokesperson for Coppola Foods.
For London’s Jewish community and other kosher consumers, this renewal means reliable access to authentic Italian staples such as tomatoes, beans, rice, and couscous—all produced without preservatives, additives, or artificial colorings. The products are available online through Coppola Foods’ Gourmica store, making them accessible to both retail and foodservice customers who seek kosher-certified Italian ingredients.
Coppola Foods, a fourth-generation family business founded in Salerno in the early 20th century, is also a Benefit Corporation working toward B Corp certification. The company prides itself on transparency, sustainability, and the use of simple, high-quality ingredients that reflect the values of the Mediterranean diet.
The renewal of the KLBD certification not only reinforces Coppola Foods’ commitment to quality and ethical standards but also supports the broader kosher supply chain in London, where demand for certified products continues to rise. This development is expected to benefit both Jewish communities and those who associate kosher certification with enhanced food safety and quality assurance.
