KIBBUTZ KFAR AZA JOINS RECHES REAL ESTATE TO BUILD A NEW NIS 250M INDUSTRIAL

Kibbutz Kfar Aza, located close to the Gaza border, has signed a deal with
Reches Real Estate and the Zadok Group to jointly build and manage a new
multipurpose industrial complex at a cost of NIS 250 million ($67 million) to
provide residents with jobs once they will be able to return home and to attract
businesses to the war-hit area.
The complex, which is expected to take about three years to be completed, will
offer 42,000 square meters (452,000 square feet) of building space and cover an
area of about 60 dunams (15 acres) located in the industrial zone of Kibbutz
Kfar Gaza. The Zadok Group will be the anchor tenant of the project and will
rent out space for office use, industry, businesses, and for storage purposes.
“The establishment of the industrial complex in Kfar Aza is more than a business
opportunity – it is a national mission,” said Tomer Katz, founder of Reches Real
Estate, which is co-owned by Arkin Capital, told The Times of Israel. “We are
seeing interest by businesses and industry seeking to move to peripheral areas
because of expensive rents in the center of the country.”
“We hope that the residents of Kfar Aza and the surrounding communities will be
able to move back home soon and that the establishment of the complex will give
them a positive perspective for the reconstruction and rehabilitation of the
Tekuma area [of Gaza border communities] and the strengthening of the economy in
this challenging period.”
The project which is in the planning stages will be erected next to the entrance
to Kibbutz Kfar Gaza, 15 minutes from Highway 4 and 20 minutes from Highway 6,
and will be accessible to population and employment pools from the surrounding
southern communities, including Ofakim, Sderot, Netivot, as well as Beersheba,
Ashkelon and Kiryat Gat.

The return of thousands of residents of Gaza border communities to their homes
has been further delayed because of the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip, after
being displaced for over a year now. Many Gaza border evacuees cannot go home
either because the communities are not safe or their infrastructure was too
badly damaged by the Hamas terror onslaught of October 7 last year. They are
being housed in temporary neighborhoods built for them in the Negev region of
southern Israel. Most of Kibbutz Kfar Aza has moved to Kibbutz Ruhama.

Epstein, Zadok Group CEO Yishai Zadok, and Reches Real Estate CEO Tomer Katz.

The partners in the Kfar Aza project hope that the convenient location and
advanced infrastructure will make the complex one of the leading and advanced
industrial centers in the region.
“Reconstruction and then prosperity of the area surrounding Gaza will only be
possible by combining the forces of the State of Israel, the business world and
the residents – it starts with education, employment and infrastructure,” said
Ori Epstein, Kfar Aza’s agricultural and business manager. “I am excited to sign
this deal as it will lead to the creation of hundreds of sources of employment
for the residents of the Gaza border area and at the same time provide a
significant source of income for the Kfar Aza community that will go towards the
rehabilitation and the absorption of residents as they move back to their
homes.”

In Kfar Aza, 62 people were killed on October 7 last year from a community of
1,000 residents when thousands of Hamas-led terrorists massacred some 1,200
people, mainly civilians, and took some 250 hostages. Among the lost ones, are
Epstein’s son, Netta, 22, who dived onto a Hamas grenade to save his fiancé’s
life during the massacre in southern Israel. His mother, Bilha, 81, and another
grandson, Nitzan Libstein, were also murdered in the onslaught in the kibbutz,
as was her son-in-law, Ofir Libstein, head of the Sha’ar Hanegev Regional
Council and Nitzan’s father.
More than a year after the October 7 massacre Kfar Aza is emerging as one of the
first Gaza-border neighborhoods that is not waiting for the authorities and is
taking its own initiative to be fully renovated with the help of the Brothers
and Sisters in Arms organization and volunteers.
Bridging the US-Israel divide
While the heart of The Times of Israel’s work takes place in Israel, so many of
Jerusalem’s actions are influenced by those in Washington’s halls of power.
As ToI’s US bureau chief, I work to gain access to decision-makers in the United
States government so our readers can understand the US-Israel relationship
beyond the platitudes evident in public statements.
I'm proud of our ability to inform without sensationalizing, our dedication to
be fast while ensuring accuracy, and our determination to present Israel's
entire, complex story.
Your support through The Times of Israel Community helps us continue to keep
readers around the world properly informed about the critical Israel-US
relationship. Do you appreciate our news coverage? If so, please join the ToI
Community today.
