USDA Certified Meat Processor Adds Halal Products

CLIENT SHOWCASE: NATIONS BEST

We sat down with Guy Robinson, the Vice President of Nation's Best Wholesalers inc, to find out how having some of their products halal-certified, has positively benefited their Company.

In 1913, Sandor Rosner arrived at Ellis Island. He brought anentrepreneurial spirit, along with expert knowledge in curing and smoking meats in Eastern Europe.

In 1922, with a treasure chest of traditional, kosher meat recipes that Sandor had used in the Old Country, he began manufacturing and smoking kosher deli meats.

The Authentic New York Deli was born as a result of a wave of immigration to New York during the turn of the 20th Century.

Soon after, Rosner’s Kosher Meat Products, Inc. was launched in Brooklyn. Delicatessen offerings were becoming an important thread in the fabric of New York’s culture.

The passion to create the best deli meats was passed on to Sandor’s son,Murray, who got involved in the business at an early age. He, too, apprenticed his young son, Ira, to learn everything from the “bottom” up.

Flash forward to 1978, after serving in the military, Ira’s entrepreneurial vision helped him identify a market opportunity for people who loved kosher deli meat, but were not kosher.

He started Nations Best Delicatessen Meat Company on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, at 525 East 5th Street, honoring his grandfather’s legacy and continuing the family tradition.

A few years later, Nations Best was among the pioneers who moved to Hunt’s Point Meat Market, where they are still located today.

“At Nations Best, we are proud to consistently offer the best-tasting deli meats on the market. We spare nothing to make the highest quality products that capture that authentic New York deli flavor. We are committed to providing outstanding service and great value, while partnering to form successful, long term relationships with our customers and distributor’s ”

Nations Best reached out to us at Halal Watch World, with a concern about the ever growing Muslim Community in their area. They are the fore runners in their field by having some of their products Halal Certified.

“ We decided to certify some of our products Halal because we care about our Muslim community, we also had a few customers request for us to get a few products Halal certified.”

“We have never wavered from our commitment to quality, our traditional recipes or our handmade approach, even while using the latest technology. We believe that our customers, are the cornerstone of our business. That is why we strive to go extra lengths to ensure they are completely satisfied. It is our strong belief in building long term relationships that keeps us motivated.”

Getting some products Halal Certified has greatly benefited Nations Best, as it has opened doors for their Company to grow exponentially, by adding new markets for their products and dealing with their current and new distributors.

• Halal Turkey Stew

Our team at Halal Watch World, are passionate about getting good quality Halal Certified products to the Muslims of America and across the globe.

Our auditors travel extensively all across America to make sure all Halal Products we certify are regulated and of top quality.

Our Vice President, Imam Mansoor Umar arrived at Nations Best and discussed the methodology and document requirements for certification purposes. He focused on all of the locations that the product touches or passes through, which also includes warehouse locations. The auditor’s concern is to make sure that the facility is conducive to producing a halal product, and maintaining its integrity.

Once the walk-through was completed, he sat down in the final stages to consolidate all of the notes and information. Our audits are designed to ensure that the facility functions within the ethics of our dietary code. Once all of the documentation had been reviewed, a halal certificate was produced.

Halal Watch World continues to maintain a regular presence within the facility in order to provide confidence that the halal products are permissible to consume.

A big thanks to Nations Best Wholesalers!
