Storage, Cooling and Display Systems Ha'argaz is an Israeli cooperative founded in Tel Aviv in 1932.
During heavy rains in November 1938, the factory in Neve Shaanan was flooded and workers toiled for hours save the raw materials.
It was decided in 1945 to convert to a company half owned by investors and half-owned by a workers cooperative.
[citation needed] In 1949, Ha'argaz began to manufacture jerry cans, military helmets and a variety of logistical equipment for the newly established Israeli army.
Starting in 2009, the company moved its bus factory from Tel Aviv to an industrial zone near Kiryat Mal'akhi.
