Abeles & Heymann (www.abeles-heymann.com), a New Jersey-based company that has specialized in premium glatt kosher deli for more than half a century will debut its new MAP (modified atmosphere packaging) at the 28th annual Kosherfest trade show at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in Secaucus, NJ. November 15-16, 2016. According to CEO Seth Leavitt, Abeles & Heymann is the first American kosher provisions company to be using the technology for kosher sliced (beef) deli.
“Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is a way of extending the shelf life of fresh food products. The technology substitutes the atmospheric air inside a package with a protective gas mix. The gas in the package helps ensure that the product will stay fresh for as long as possible,” explains Leavitt.
