Toro manufactures turf maintenance equipment, snow removal equipment and water-saving irrigation systems. The company is traded at a market capitalization of $7.9 billion on Nadsaq and has annual sales of around $2.6 billion.

 

 

Yamit co-founder and president Ofer Talmi said in an interview with Calcalist that one of Yamit’s main advantages is that it manufactures 90% of its products, and thus does not have to rely on third parties. The company intends to triple its manufacturing capabilities in the near future and to set up additional manufacturing facilities to cut down on the time it takes products to reach the market, he said.
