"Delta Galilis the nation's largest manufacturer and marketer of textiles and is one of the largest private-label underwear manufacturers in the world.

The company was one of the first local firms to benefit from the peace process, as it moved manufacturing to neighboring countries with low labor costs. Delta currently manufactures in Egypt, Jordan, Turkey and Scotland.

Dov Lautman, Delta's chairman and largest shareholder holds 56% of the company and Sara Lee, the world's largest clothing manufacturer, has some 30%. The remainder is traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange."

Sara Lee website has an interesting anti-boycott statement:


Antiboycott:
Sara Lee employees and its agents
may not by law cooperate in any way
with an unsanctioned foreign boycott of
countries friendly to the United States.
The largest international boycott today is
the boycott of Israel and the related
blacklist of companies doing business
with Israel by certain Arab countries.
Any request for information or action that
seems to be related to this or any illegal
boycott should be immediately forwarded
to the Law Department.
