ABOUT THE BUSINESS:
The young entrepreneurs began their business operations
with guestrooms at Sdeh Zvi back in 2006. To begin with
they rented abandoned buildings and rented them out
as guest accommodation. A few years ago they managed
to purchase their own plot of land at the moshav, and
they started to build new guestrooms, based on natural
construction methods.
The entrepreneurs contacted the Ness Negev Business
Loan Fund to apply for a loan for the completion of
construction on the third guest accommodation unit,
as well as for the construction of an adjoining spa, and
for the purchase of a yurt, to be used to house various
workshops.
Today the spa is managed by Tal’s sister, Shibolet, and is
called Mrs. S. The business employs 3 full time workers, in
addition to 3 treatment practitioners whose services are
engaged as required.
Gil and Tal continue to invest in expanding
the business and are constructing additional
infrastructures, in order to turn their dream
into reality. The couple would like to thank the
Ness Negev Business Loan Fund for the loan
and are sure they will submit another request
in the future, for another loan in order to
expand the guest accommodation facility.
