Mekorot has conveyed water, the source of life for more than 85 years
For more than 85 years, Mekorot has embodied the unique Israeli spirit: daring, sophistication, and innovation in the face of the complex challenges of the Israeli water economy. These challenges are derived from the country’s location on the edge of the desert and lean sources of water, which face constant threats.

We are the National Water Company of Israel.

Everything that Mekorot does is for the Israeli people: the family at home, the farmer in the field, the worker in industry. We understand the needs of each of them and plan and design Israel’s water map accordingly, putting Israel on the global water map.

We do this by constantly pushing the limits of knowledge and expanding the capabilities of water technologies. We turn every risk into a possibility and every challenge into an opportunity in order to always ensure an available and reliable supply of high-quality water.
