It later inaugurated its factory in eastern Gaza City in 2016, initially operating with one production line. The company's success continued with the launch of the second and third phases and the addition of new production lines, contributing to the creation of over 300 direct jobs and 3,000 indirect jobs, thus directly contributing to the revitalization of the local economy in the Gaza Strip.
Over the years, the company has been committed to supporting the local community in the Gaza Strip through various social initiatives and campaigns to assist the less fortunate in facing the difficult circumstances they endure, especially in terms of healthcare, children, and needy families.
