Since 15/10/23, thanks to a very generous donation, and in collaboration with “Sky Productions”, we started our 2 weeks operation to feed 10,000 soldiers with hot and fresh shawarma.
During this time, with our food truck, we reached military bases all around Israel, north to south.
Our mission - to continue this operation and to reach many more soldiers with our truck, raise their moral, give them strength and hug them with the warmth of shawarma.
About us
Omri Hessel and Matan Cohen, owners of 2 event catering companies. At normal times, we are busy cooking and spreading joy at weddings and celebratory events all over israel. With our food truck and with the help of our team, we opened a field kitchen, supplying high end catering services.
Given the situation is Israel, and the ongoing war these days, all of our events in the near future are canceled. We decided to join the national effort and to give our soldiers what we do the best.
Why Shawarma?
There are 2 things that unite our people more than anything, the first is war and the second - Shawarma!
A hot and fresh shawarma pita is a dream for every soldier.
The happiness in their eyes, the moral boost and the comments that we get each day are worth it all.
To feed hungry soldiers on the spot with fresh shawarma, instead of pre packed meals or combat meals feels like a great win.
