Israeli Businesswoman Ofra Strauss
Strauss, Chairwoman of the Strauss-Elite Group, was mentioned in the Financial times as one of the world’s top 50 businesswomen.
“By the time Ofra took over, in 1996, the company was Israel’s second biggest food and beverage group, thanks in part to the purchase of Elite, a coffee and chocolate giant. Looking to strengthen further the group’s portfolio, Strauss has acquired several brands and expanded abroad, while managing to integrate Elite. Sales in 2008 topped NIS6.2bn (£1bn). And its product lines are expanding, with moves into packaged salads and salty snacks.”
