“We wish all of our consumers the sweetest holiday season,” says Shani Seidman, CMO of Kayco Kosher, the parent company of Manischewitz. “These delicious new products, along with our new look and feel, will make your New Year special, adding joy to any family celebration and enjoyment all year long.”
The rebranded Manischewitz features refreshed graphics and colors across all products, on its website, in-store displays, and social media. You can also find Manischewitz merchandise, featuring “Yiddishisms” that reflect the brand’s heritage, available at www.manichewitz.com
The new products for Rosh Hashanah reflect this renewed ethos, supporting Manischewitz’s commitment to its core values while inviting a broader audience to explore the cultural richness of Jewish cuisine. Manischewitz aims to make the kosher, and now the frozen kosher aisle, a destination for everyone, regardless of background or dietary practices. Manischewitz products are more than just food—they are an invitation to experience and participate in Jewish culture.
“Manischewitz is well-known among our loyal consumers, who purchase our products day in and day out,” said Seidman. “To update our cultural relevance with a younger Jewish audience, as well as a mainstream, culturally curious audience, we’ve refreshed our brand with an exciting new look and feel across our current and new product offerings for the New Year.”
With a legacy deeply rooted in Jewish tradition, Manischewitz is embarking on a journey to transcend the kosher aisle, inviting everyone to “Savor Our Tradition” and explore the culinary heritage of Jewish culture.
“Manischewitz is not just about food; it’s about stories, heritage, and a sense of belonging. Through this rebrand, we aim to capture the hearts of the culturally curious and kosher-keeping alike, offering a taste of Jewish tradition that is accessible to all,” adds Seidman.
