Shlomi and Yossi Amir are set to become the new controlling shareholders of Shufersal, according to a report carried in a FreshPlaza roundup on Friday, October 30, 2026. The report attributed the development to Globes and said institutional investors with a 64 percent stake had opted for the Amir brothers' bid.

A new ownership direction

The prospective buyers previously established the Freshmarket supermarket chain and sold it to Paz in 2021. Their expected return to the Israeli grocery sector would place a new shareholder group behind Shufersal's nationwide retail platform.

At 2:44 p.m. CET on Friday, October 30, Shufersal stock traded at ILS 33.69. The quote was for the Tel Aviv-listed instrument and was taken after the session had closed.
