A significant development project in southern Acre is moving forward after approximately four years of work and the rehabilitation of land that had been unused for two decades. The defense technology company Rafael is set to establish a campus spanning around 40,000 square meters in the area, with occupancy expected to begin in 2027. The site, located south of Acre near the coastline, had been vacant for years. Its development required a complex environmental and engineering process of purification and rehabilitation, incorporating international knowledge and advanced technologies, according to the developers.
The completion of this rehabilitation marks the transition from land preparation to the next phase of development, focusing on the establishment of employment and logistics complexes. The project integrates business initiative with corporate responsibility, and partners are beginning to see the results of their efforts. The initiative involved collaboration with Harel, Delek, LDD, the Israel Land Authority, and environmental protection bodies. The project aims to lay the groundwork for future growth, employment, and innovation in the region. While the rehabilitation is a major milestone, it is considered only the first stage in the plan to transform the area into a large-scale employment and logistics park.
