Nothing unfavorable learned.

 

Subject is long established and well-known in their branch.

 

We are informed that subject plans to move to new premises during 2008, probably to the Rishon Le-Zion Industrial Zone (situated not far from the present location in Holon).

 

The local economy has been constantly growing since 2004, following the recession during the years 2001-2003. Most industrial sectors recovered and have been constantly growing, however the local building and construction sectors have been recovering in a slower pace.

 

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics, in 2006 overall investments in the construction sector fell by 1% compring to 2005, reaching total of NIS 47.3 bililion (of which NIS 25.9 billion were construction for dwelling and NIS 21.4 billion for other construction projects). The forecast for 2007 stands on NIS 48 billion, and another moderate increase in 2008 – to NIS 49.8 billion.

Building starts for dwelling during 2006 summed up to 29,600 housing units, less than the 30,600 units in 2005. However, there was a 23% increase in building starts not for dwelling, reaching 2.1 million square meters.

 

The commercial real estate branch in 2006 was characterized in relatively high demand comparing to recent years.

A rise of 2% was also noted in the infrastructure construction sector, with NIS 9.9 billion investments.

 

Sales of the building and consumer products by the local industries in 2006 rose by 2.3% from 2005, summing up to US$ 14.7 billion, according to the Industrialist's Association. The break of the sales shows a 2% increase in local sales (US$ 11.9 billion) and 5% increase in 2006 sales for export (US$ 2.78 billion) comparing to 2005.

The estimations in these branches are for a further growth in sales in 2007 by 2.1%, up to US$ 15.15 billion.
