Kosher symbols are the signs on food packaging or eating establishments that show the food is kosher. A kosher symbol will carry a name of a recognized rabbi or kosher inspection agency.
When a kosher customer goes shopping, he/she will look out for those signs to know what to buy.

Australia- Kosher Australia (K in an Oz map), Melbourne Kosher
Canada- MK in a circle, COR in a circle. South Africa- "BD" in a diamond. And, of course, a host of Israeli symbols. You really need to know what's what in Israel, because there are a few unreliable symbols floating about.
