The Story of Yehuda Matzos

The Yehuda Matzos company started a long time ago. It was founded in 1921. The Ludmir family from a city called Safed began the factory. Local religious leaders helped them. They asked people to buy matzo from the factory. This helped support the people working there.

In 1949, the factory moved to Jerusalem. It is still in the same spot today. This area is called Givat Shaul. The factory makes different products all year. They produce matzo, matzo flour, cookies, and biscuits.

Matzo for Passover

For the special holiday of Passover, they make specific matzos. These include "reserved matzahs" under the Jerusalem Matzah name. They also make regular matzahs and other special foods. All their Passover products are kosher. This means they follow Jewish dietary laws.

Quality and Standards

The factory follows strict rules for making food. The Chief Rabbinate of Jerusalem checks their products. This makes sure the food is kosher. Their products also meet international quality standards. These standards are called ISO 9001 and HACCP.
