Social responsibility: Practical and fair

Origin

Our organic dates grow in the Jordan Valley, north of the Dead Sea. The desert climate there is perfect for super juicy and dark dates.
Unfortunately, the political situation in this area was never simple and land conflicts have occurred regularly since about 1500 BC. This creates a fragile, complex political situation that currently has no simple solution.
Our approach is to provide livelihoods and work together for people in the region, regardless of race, nationality or gender.




The people

Our warehouse and growers employ approximately 200 people living in and around the Jordan Valley, approximately 50% of whom are women. They work on the plantations, packaging, sorting and various management positions. Most of our employees are Palestinians and work with Israelis. Our employees work in safe, modern comfortable facilities, using advanced equipment to BRC Food and GlobalGAP standards. We have also initiated the GRASP certification process and SMETA to demonstrate our commitment to our employees.

Inclusive

Our working method is inclusive. We buy our dates from Israeli and Palestinian farmers from Jericho / Jordan Valley. We also employ Israelis, Palestinians, regardless of gender, nationality, religion or sexual orientation.


Bridge to livelihood

By providing income to 200 families, Palestinians and Israelis, we build a bridge to practical coexistence. We believe that our operations have a positive impact on the livelihoods of people living around us. The political situation in the Jordan Valley is not ideal and there are disagreements on certain issues, but the solution probably lies somewhere in between and not at the extremes. Building bridges for normal life, income and mutual respect are key to regional stability and play an important role in the quality of life for people living in and around the Jordan Valley. By creating jobs, treating people with respect and bringing people together, we believe our Bio Medjoul Dates are part of the solution to creating a better life for the communities around us.
