Yossi Kuttin is 49 years old and happily married to his wife, Rona. They have three daughters (18, 14, and 11) and they live in Gedera, which is conveniently just a 10-minute drive from Brurim. Yossi has been with Hazera for four years. "Next month, I will celebrate my fifth year as the Commercial Manager of Israel, overseeing sales and product development in the Israeli market."
Yossi is an agronomist, an expert in soil management and crop production. "When my friends hear that, they think I know everything about every crop, whether it's trees or their mother's garden," he says.
When war broke out in Gaza, Yossi found himself supporting the growers close to the conflict. "On October 7th, when the war broke out, many of our customers were dramatically affected all over Israel, especially in the region close to Gaza. Firstly, their families had to evacuate the region, leaving them to manage their farms from home, right next to the war zone. Secondly, many foreign employees left due to fear of the conflict, leaving the growers without sufficient labor. In response, my team and I, next to many Israeli citizens, volunteered and assisted the growers. For several weeks, we visited different growers and plant raisers once a week, providing labor support in the fields and greenhouses. Additionally, we extended support by delaying payments for customers who lived close to Gaza and were hit the hardest. I take pride in reaching out to these growers in the name of Hazera and remaining committed to supporting Israeli agriculture in every way possible."
