How one of Oregon's oldest hazelnut processors gained a competitive edge with AHF's seamless halal certification process, enhancing brand value and customer satisfaction.
Cascade Foods is one of Oregon's oldest hazelnut processing plants. With a strong family-oriented ethos, the company has built a reputation for high-quality, locally sourced hazelnuts that resonate with its long-standing community roots.
Over the years, Cascade Foods has grown its customer base thanks in part to its commitment to understanding and respecting different cultural and religious requirements - which led them to pursue halal certification.
Cascade Foods initially sought halal certification to meet the increasing demand from customers who required halal-certified products. Their decision was also rooted in a genuine respect for the values and beliefs of the Muslim community.
By choosing to work with the American Halal Foundation, Cascade Foods aligned its production practices with globally recognized halal standards.
A senior representative at Cascade Foods described working with AHF as a defining factor in the organization's seamless journey towards halal certification - highlighting AHF's supportive role in educating their team about halal principles and practices, and ensuring every step of the process was clear and manageable.
While many companies face hurdles in obtaining halal certification, Cascade Foods found the journey straightforward: comprehensive guidance and consistent communication from the AHF team addressed any uncertainty that arose.
