Kibbutz Beit HaShita is located in northern Israel, between Afula and Beit She’an. In the 1960s, Beit HaShita established a pickling factory which produces and markets pickles, olives and pickled vegetables under the brand name Beit HaShita. The factory also produces syrups for making juices. The factory was bought from the kibbutz in 1998 by the Israeli food manufacturer, Osem.
