CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

 

Nothing unfavorable learned.

 

Subject is long established and a leading company in its field in the local market.

 

Subject's products known to be of high quality.

 

According to reports from December 2009, subject leased the new shop in 30 Hei Be’Iyar Street, Hamedina Square, Tel Aviv (which replace the shop they had in Herzliya, which was closed), paying US$ 10,000.00 per month rental fees. The reason for the relative high fees is that “Hamedina Square” (or Kikar Hamedina in Hebrew) is one (if not the most) of Israel’s most prestigious shopping areas.

 

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), import of fabrics and yarns rose in 2010 by 16.6% and reached US$ 684.5 million. This reflects the recovery in general in the local economy, as well as in the global economic environment (import fell in 2009 by 17.2% from 2008), and return to the growth trend in the recent years beforehand.

 

The Chinese production comprises the largest portion of the imported textile goods followed by France, Italy, Hong Kong and Turkey. The increase in imports emanates from the exposure to foreign markets policy by the State.

 

From CBS data, import of Household Utensils in 2010 rose by 15.8% from 2009 summing up to US$ 549.3 million, comparing to US$ 474.2 million in 2009 and similar to 2008 level.
