The Ofer Brothers Group, a dynamic and diverse cluster of companies at the forefront of Israel's economy, is one of the country's largest privately-held economic groups. During its many years of operation under family management, the Group has earned a sterling reputation for its hands-on efficient management, steadfast commitment to quality, comprehensive response to market needs, discerning investment in areas with strong potential, and perceptive assessment of long-term economic growth opportunities.
The Ofer Brothers Group has financial strength, capital infrastructure, technological and industrial resources, and the expertise of a dedicated team of employees who are determined to carry its tradition of excellence into the future. That ongoing sense of purpose assures that the Ofer Brothers Group will continue to respond to community and individual needs by undertaking projects and developing enterprises that encourage technological and industrial development, economic growth, expansion of trade activity, professional training and responsible environmental management.
The Group evolved from Joseph Herschovici's small ship chandlery and shipping agency in Haifa to today's multifaceted economic conglomerate, managed by his sons, who changed the family's name to the Hebrew name, Ofer. Two sons, Sammy and Yuli, have spent their entire professional lives building the family's business enterprise, reaffirming their father's legacy and dreams.
The oldest son, David, joined the family business after an impressive public service career at the peak of which he served as a Major General in the Israel Police. He passed away in 1994. |
