23 MAY 2013 - 14 SIVAN 5773 We are aware of the current difficulties being experienced in sourcing sufficient quantities of supervised Chalav Yisrael milk, cheese and yoghurts. We are sensitive to the needs of the Chalav Yisrael community and are doing everything within our power to bring about a change in the situation. One of the main issues we have to deal with is the size of the kosher community, which in consumer terms, is relatively small, and within that, the demand for supervised Chalav Yisrael products is even smaller. Manufacturers are reluctant to produce products where demand is not sufficient to justify the additional expenses and resources required for production of these products. However, we remain committed to ensuring that supply (and quality) meets demand and will continue our efforts in this regard. ******************************************
