Elarco International Ltd is well known since 2002 for representing European companies selling into the biggest non-food chains in Israel, Home Center, Ace Hardware and Office Depot. ( www.elarco-intl.com )
On January 1st 2009, Elarco launched a new website ( www.diy-sourcing.com ) to promote Israel manufacturers of DIY, Home Improvements and Hardware products, as well as gardening products. With a wide listing of all contact details and websites, visitors to the site can search for products and find a list of manufacturers making the looked for item.
“We were looking for an innovative and straightforward way to link buyers with the many manufacturers of these type of products in Israel “says Les Rose, CEO of Elarco International. There are over 400 manufacturers supplying world markets with innovative and quality items that compete with the best in the world, and are well priced. This is a strictly B2B site with large and medium size companies shipping containers to the North America, Europe and the Far East.
The website also includes details of World Hardware and Builders Shows (www.diy-sourcing.com/
All access to the contact listings are free and open to all, without a need to register.
There is an e-mail sourcing page for those items that are not listed and the very experienced Elarco team pride themselves in responding with details within 48 hours. Les Rose and his team have been working in the Israeli Home Center and Hardware field for over 20 years and are well known, and well connected within the business. Elarco is the Israeli Buying office for the Japanese Home Center chain, Joyful Honda, and can act as buying office for clients if required.
The launching of this new constantly updated website is a way that we can fight the world recession by showing that Israel is an ideal offshore manufacturing base, with highly qualified workers and manufacturers that understand world markets. With a population of only 7 million, Israel relies on exports to survive and is a reliable working partner, as Home Depot, Lowes and other large retailers have discovered.
