Kosher Charlotte

What Kosher Charlotte does

Kosher Charlotte is a privately-held, direct-to-consumer kosher food and catering service headquartered in Charlotte, NC, physically co-located inside the Chabad Center For Jewish Life on Sardis Road. The company positions itself as the primary source of fresh kosher prepared food and kosher catering for the Charlotte Jewish community and surrounding areas, serving observant individuals, families, and event hosts who would otherwise have limited access to certified kosher food in the market. It currently accepts orders for in-store pickup at the Chabad Center and delivery within roughly a 10-mile radius via DoorDash.

The product suite centers on HaPina — a related kosher restaurant offering dine-in and pickup — alongside a dedicated Shabbat Takeout menu with a Wednesday-by-midnight ordering deadline for Friday pickup or delivery. A 'Platters & Family Meal Packages' catering line is listed as 'coming soon,' and full-service kosher catering is offered with dedicated menus and Formstack-based request forms. The technology stack is assembled from off-the-shelf SaaS: GetSauce powers online ordering across HaPina and Shabbat channels, Toast Tab handles gift card sales, DoorDash handles delivery, Formstack manages catering intake, and Google reCAPTCHA secures account creation. Kosher Charlotte holds a kosher certification, evidenced by a downloadable PDF on its website.

The business generates revenue from prepared-food sales (online ordering for pickup or delivery), catering engagements, gift card sales through Toast Tab, and delivery-related fees via DoorDash. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the only published promotion is a 20% discount on the next order in exchange for texting 'Kosher' to a short code. Marketing is concentrated in owned digital channels — the company's website, email newsletter signup, SMS/text outreach, and organic social — with no evidence of paid acquisition, external investors, parent company, or disclosed financials in the available data.
