Home Centers (DIY) Ltd.
 PROFILE
If Jesus were a carpenter in Jerusalem today, he might buy his power tools at Home Centers (DIY), Israel's largest home-improvement chain. The company runs 43 do-it-yourself stores nationwide and one in Cyprus; most are superstores, although a handful are the smaller Express format. The Home Centers stores sell 35,000 products, including tools, paint, building materials, furniture, housewares, outdoor goods, and automotive accessories; several leased departments sell additional home furnishings. Bilu Enterprises took Home Centers private in December 2000. Bilu is 64%-owned by Fishman Group, Israel's largest retail conglomerate, which merged its 19-store Handyman chain under the Home Centers banner in Spring 2000.
