Manischewitz
Vineland, NJ
The Manischewitz Company dates back to 1888 when Rabbi Dov Behr Manischewitz opened a coal-fired matzo bakery in Cincinnati, Ohio. Initially crafting traditional Passover flatbreads for just family and neighbors, by the end of the century the business had grown into a recognized brand, with Manischewitz behind many of the technical innovations now commonplace in the commercial baking of matzo.
As the first company to package and distribute their flatbreads for a larger audience, in 1932 a new factory was built in New Jersey so they could be closer to the Northeast's burgeoning Jewish immigrant community. To this day Manishewitz remains committed to community, quality, and tradition as America’s largest dedicated Kosher brand. In 2015 the company proudly gained Non-GMO Project certification, sourcing quality wheat from American farmers.
