Lima, Peru — Two hundred kosher challah loaves are sold each week from Chabad of Lima’s newly refurbished bakery. That’s one loaf for every thirteen Jews in Peru. Chabad’s enviable market share is owed to the fact that it’s the only kosher bakery in the country. And because of Peru’s recently adopted flour enrichment regulations, Chabad’s bakery is one of few places kosher flour may be purchased in the nation.
