CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

 

Nothing unfavorable learned.

 

General Manager Nahum Oshri refused to update any data.

 

According to reports from the beginning of 2012, total sales of the local fashion market are NIS 10 billion per annum.

Sources in the local fashion branch comment that in recent months the branch entered again a freezing mode. It may be explained by several factors, including the present slow-down in local economy, the fierce competition and more.

 

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), import of Clothing and Footwear in 2011 kept the rising trend from 2010: import rose by close to 19%, after rising 13.4% in 2010 from 2009, summing up to US$ 1,707.3 million (in 2009 the local market experienced a slow-down). Most import comes from China. Main other countries of origin for textile goods are France, Italy, Hong Kong and Turkey, Spain and the U.S.A.

 

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), private consumption expenditure by Israeli households in 2011 in clothing, footwear and personal effects rose by mere 1.3% from 2010, after a 9.5% increase from 2009.

 

Despite the fears due to the slow-down trend in the local economy, mainly since mid 2011, sales by the local fashion –clothing and footwear- branch in 2011 witnessed a growth. Sales during the year characterized in ups and downs, though eventually they came higher than 2010, a year which was better than 2009, when the branch suffered from slow-down (coupled with the general local economic environment) and overall sales indicators were negative. 2010 sales were only marginally positive.

According to sources in the local fashion branch, in recent months the branch entered again a freezing mode. It may be explained by several factors, including the present slow-down in local economy, the fierce competition and more.
