A private Israeli company that produces and markets refrigerated packaged salads, dips and spreads to the retail market in Israel and international markets such as the US and Canada, Europe, Asia and Russia.
The company's main factory is located in the Barkan Industrial Zone in the settlement of Barkan in the occupied West Bank.
The company labels and markets its products abroad as "Made in Israel."
The company supplies its products through distributors in the UK and Europe to several supermarket chains, including Edeka, Carrefour, Auchan, Leclerc, and Farnprix. The company exports its products to Costco USA.
Between 2011 and 2017, the company received annual payments in a total amount of NIS 6,409,474 from the Israeli Ministry of Economy and Industry under the budget line for the “indemnification of exporters from Judea and Samaria [West Bank] and the Golan” through the Israeli Export Institute, for Israeli businesses operating in the occupied West Bank and the Syrian Golan.
Exploitation of Labor
The company employs Palestinian workers from the occupied West Bank, as young as 17.
In 2013, a Palestinian worker who filed a lawsuit against the company for payments he was owed (such as holidays, vacations, overtime and sick pay) was immediately fired. An Israeli court ruled that the decision violated the worker's basic rights. Similar lawsuits have been filed by other Shamir Salads employees.
Until 2016, the company was the sole supplier of salads to the Israeli military.
