My Story

יהיו לרצון אמרי פי והגיון לבי לפניך יהוה צורי וגאלי

BS’’D

Shalom and Bracha, welcome to the MatzaMan website and WebStore.

The MatzaMan History:

In 2012, I responded to a Janglo posting: they were looking for someone to sell booklets to raise funds for Rav Arush’s cheder. I did this for the Cheder.

Mitzvah goreret Mitzvah.

The Minahel then asked me to assist him with selling hand Shmura whole wheat matzah and grape juice; a portion of the proceeds would go to the Cheder and the faculty and staff would receive the matzah and juice at a discounted price.

My role was to be the marketing arm of the project, although I also helped with the distribution afterwards.

I developed customers in Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh, Ma’ale Adumim, Tzfat and Efrat.

The following year, the project was not going to be implemented, and the Minahel suggested that I carry on with the matzah sales on my own. (The sale of the grape juice had proven to be impractical.) As the Minahel had been my connection to the manufacturer and my Ivrit was from hunger, I needed a new source.

I saw a posting on Janglo, by Z.D., who was more than delighted to form a relationship that lasts.

For 8 years he was my supplier, having worked in the matzah factory while in Yeshiva he had the relationship and transported the matzah to me.

Two years ago, when Z.D. decided that he could no longer manage matzah sales with a full-time job, I became his supplier of a few cases of matza.

In the intervening years, the business has grown by leaps and bounds.

Products have grown to include whole organic grain spelt hand and machine; gluten-free oat hand and machine; and variations on the whole wheat product such as organic and extra-crispy.

We now deliver throughout Israel, and have even shipped to Switzerland, South Africa and the US.

In 2022 we used an online ordering vendor, and it made the growth easier.

In 2023 we opened our online matzah store: www.matzaman.co.il

For the first 8 years of business, we have had community pickup points where our clients would meet friends and pick up their matza. With Covid, we needed to switch to personal deliveries in Jerusalem and BS/RBS. In the smaller distribution areas and Yishuvim, we continued to have a community pickup point.

In 2024, we are offered home delivery as well as having community pickup points.

This year, we have contracted with a professional delivery service. Once our warehouse has transferred your order to the delivery service you will receive a communication via SMS or email with an estimated delivery date.

Note: for our customers in Jerusalem, BS/RBS and Ma’ale Adumim there is an option for going to a Community Pickup Point.

We are please to announce that we are expanding our market to the USA. We will be selling wholesale to kosher markets and will be selling full cases of mostly 3-matza seder sets to community organizations for use as a fundraising tool. For more details on this expansion to marketing in the USA see here: Expanding our Market

Our Ma’ot Chittim project:

In 2012, when we started, a portion of our sales went to Rav Arush’s Cheder. Initially, we used the funds to help those who needed the healthful specialty matzot at a lower price. The project has grown with us providing matzah and funds to Melabev BS, Rebbitzen S. Lichtman’s Tomche Shabbat- Beit Shemesh, Sara Avrahami’s Tomche Shabbas-Nachlaot, JM, Mussar Avicha-Ma’ale Adumim, as well as individuals in a large number of communities that we serve throughout Eretz Yisroel.

Of course, in addition to the Ma’ot Chittim Project we continue to give ma’aser to charitable organizations.

Please, give generously, either as part of your order, or better yet, as a Bank Transfer (we save on fees).

We at MatzaMan look forward to supplying your healthful specialty shmura matzah needs this year and for many years to come. (You will still need matzah to eat with your Korban Pesach when you come to Yerushalyim for the Regel.) Please GD, this year in Yerushalyim.

We should all have a Chag Sameyach and Kasher, also Enjoy Adar and have a Purim Sameyach.
