Ein Gedi Mineral Water (Hebrew: עין גדי) is a popular brand of bottled water from Israel. It started making water in 1997. This brand is Israel's third most popular bottled water, with about 17% of the market. The water comes from the beautiful Ein Gedi nature reserve.
Who Owns Ein Gedi Water?
Since 2004, Ein Gedi Mineral Water has been owned by two groups working together. One owner is Ein Gedi Kibbutz, which is a special community in Israel. The other owner is Jafora-Tabori, a large Israeli drink company. They made a deal in 2004 to share ownership.
Protecting the Ein Gedi Oasis
Sometimes, people worry about how much water is taken from the Ein Gedi nature reserve. Some people have suggested that others should stop buying Ein Gedi water. This idea came from a concern that taking too much water might cause the amazing Ein Gedi oasis to dry up. Protecting natural places like this is very important.
