Dr Avrom Pollak has been the president of Star-K for over 30 years. He commented on the newfound UAE interest in Kosher. "Star-K kosher certification has provided kosher supervision for over fifty years. Over the years, we have gained the reputation of providing prompt friendly service with the help of our team of experts including technical staff, a network of rabbinic Kashrus administrators, food scientists and field supervisors. It is important, especially now, in light of the Israel-UAE peace agreement, to make entities in the food industry aware of the value of kosher-certified products not only for the Jewish community here
