Ahava

Ahava Dead Sea Laboratories, Limited (Hebrew: אהבה, Love) is an Israeli cosmetics company with headquarters in Lod that manufactures skin care products made of mud and mineral-based compounds from the Dead Sea. As of 2015, Ahava's income was more than US$150 million a year. In 2015, the Chinese conglomerate Fosun International agreed to purchase a controlling share of the company, which has been valuated to ca. NIS 300 million ($77 million USD). A subsidiary, AHAVA Cosmetics GmbH is based in Wiesbaden, Germany.

Ahava products have been the target of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement because of its operations in an Israeli settlement in the West Bank. The company's main manufacturing plant and showroom were in Mitzpe Shalem, an Israeli settlement and kibbutz located on the West Bank's Dead Sea shore.
