Delta Galil Industries

Delta Galil Industries SEC 20-F filing (FY2006, CIK 0001081022) confirms Victoria's Secret as one of its top-5 North American customers. Revenue from VS was growing: 'The increase in 2006 sales in North American is mainly due to the increase in sales of ladies fashionable intimate apparel products to Victoria's Secret.' Total 2006 North American sales were M (59% of .7M total), with VS among the five customers representing ~79% of that figure.

Delta Galil Industries ownership structure (SEC 20-F FY2006): GMM Capital owned 28.4% (5,323,793 shares) and founder Dov Lautman owned 24.8% (4,644,993 shares), together controlling >50% with a shareholders agreement governing board composition and CEO appointment. Isaac Dabah served as Director and Vice Chairman. Lautman was 71 years old, served as Chairman. Delta Galil was listed on TASE and had ADRs on Nasdaq Global Market (CIK 0001081022) before delisting from US exchanges in 2008.

Delta Galil Industries Ltd retained lobbying firm Sandler, Travis & Rosenberg P.A. (Washington DC) in Q1 2017 to oppose the proposed border adjustment tax and support miscellaneous tariff bills. Lobbyists included Nicole Bivens Collinson (former Assistant Textile Negotiator at USTR) and Edward Steiner (former Legislative Director, Rep L. Sanchez). Engagement terminated Q3 2017. Total reported income: $10,000. Client listed as 'Global Apparel Manufacturer and Marketer' in New York.

Victoria's Secret confirmed as top-5 North American customer of Delta Galil. VS was key growth driver: 2006 increase in North American sales 'mainly due to increase in sales of ladies fashionable intimate apparel products to Victoria's Secret.' Five largest NA customers (Walmart, Target, Victoria's Secret, JC Penney, Calvin Klein) represented 79% of 2006 NA sales. Delta Galil's total 2006 revenue was $706.7M, with NA at $418M (59%).

Delta Galil Industries is a major Victoria's Secret supplier and franchise partner. Relationship is multi-layered: (1) Private label manufacturer of underwear/intimates sold under VS brand, (2) Acquired Inner Secrets Inc which was a VS private label bra supplier, (3) Delta Galil holds 60% stake in VS Israel franchise (stores opened 2021), (4) Also operates Bath and Body Works franchise in Israel. This makes Delta Galil both a supply chain partner and retail operator for Wexner's core brands. LittleSis maps this as supplier-retailer relationship (entity 374537 to 170102).

Epstein contact book contains entry for 'Mast Industries - Milan' with redacted personal contact information. Mast Industries was the international sourcing subsidiary of Wexner's Limited Brands, confirming Epstein had a direct personal contact at the LB subsidiary that managed overseas supplier relationships including with Delta Galil.

SYNTHESIS: Limited Brands/Mast Industries had an office in Karmiel Israel (Finding #2384) where Delta Galil operated its 534K sqft principal textile manufacturing facility. Victoria's Secret was confirmed as one of Delta Galil's top-5 North American customers, with VS driving growth in fashionable intimate apparel. This establishes a direct supply chain link: Wexner's Victoria's Secret purchased intimate apparel manufactured at Delta Galil's Karmiel plant, which is the same town where Limited Brands maintained an overseas office. The Karmiel connection was not coincidental - it was a supply chain logistics hub.

Limited Brands Inc v. FC (Flying Cargo) Int'l Transportation Ltd (S.D. Ohio 2:04-cv-00632, 2004-2008) directly documents the Mast Industries-Delta Galil-Victoria's Secret supply chain. In 2003, Mast Industries (LB subsidiary) purchased goods from Delta Galil Industries Ltd in Tel Aviv, Israel, which were then sold to Victoria's Secret. A lost shipment of 596 cartons containing 106,000 bras was valued at $2,356,000.04 retail ($582,947.62 wholesale). Case cited as 545 F. Supp. 2d 692.

Delta Galil USA Inc. is defendant/party in 20+ US federal cases (2008-2026) spanning ADA accessibility, race discrimination, employment, trademark infringement, patent, commercial disputes, and customs/tariff classification. Key cases include: Delta Galil USA v. United States (CIT 1:08-cv-00357, customs tariff dispute 2008-2010); Simmons v. Delta Galil (race discrimination N.D. Georgia); Levi Strauss v. Delta Galil (trademark 2025); Delta Galil v. VF Corp (commercial SDNY 2020).

Delta Galil lobbied US Congress through Sandler Travis & Rosenberg PA (1300 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington DC) in 2017 Q1-Q2, paying $10K for Q1. Issues: (1) opposition to border adjustment tax, (2) support for miscellaneous tariff bill. Engagement terminated July 2017 (Q3 filing shows termination). Short-lived engagement focused on trade policy directly affecting Israeli manufacturing imports to US.

Delta Galil Industries listed in OHCHR Business and Human Rights Database (OpenSanctions ID ohchr-e23c9d0fa04724b6c4108ec8e42db7b83eb9ffcb) with 'debarment' topic for listed activity (g) relating to Israeli settlement business operations. LittleSis describes company as 'Israeli textile firm in the occupied West Bank.' Company's Karmiel factory (534K sqft) is in northern Israel proper but company has been flagged for West Bank-related business activities.

NETWORK NEXUS ANALYSIS: Delta Galil sits at the intersection of three Epstein-adjacent networks: (1) WEXNER COMMERCIAL: Supplier/franchise partner of Victoria's Secret/Bath & Body Works, Wexner's core brands. Both Karmiel-based during overlap period. (2) BARAK POLITICAL: Founder Dov Lautman was a close associate of Ehud Barak, donating to his 1999 campaign. Barak received .3M from Wexner Foundation (2004-2006) while Epstein managed the foundation's finances. Barak had 444 emails with Epstein and was Carbyne business partner. (3) ISRAELI ESTABLISHMENT: Lautman was President of Manufacturers Association, Rabin's economic emissary, Peres Center chairman — the same Labor/security elite that intersected with Wexner Foundation's 650-member Israeli alumni network. No direct Delta Galil-Epstein evidence found in any document corpus.

Delta Galil Industries (TASE: DELT) founded 1975 by Dov Lautman and Eliezer Peleg in Karmiel, Galilee region of Israel. Grew to become one of top 5 global underwear manufacturers with ~14,000 employees and M+ revenue. IPO on Tel Aviv Stock Exchange 1982. Currently led by CEO Isaac Dabah (since 2008, controlling shareholder 46-54%) and Chairman Noam Lautman (Dov's son, since 2011, ~10% stake). SEC CIK 0001081022. Headquarters now at 2 Kaufman St, Tel Aviv. Delta Galil USA Inc incorporated in NY 1985 (reg #998313), address in Williamsport/Montoursville PA.

SYNTHESIS: Delta Galil sits at the intersection of three Epstein-adjacent networks but with ZERO direct Epstein evidence across 700K+ pages. (1) Wexner Commercial: DG manufactured VS intimate apparel, was top-5 customer (79% of $418M NA revenue from 5 clients), court-documented supply chain via Mast Industries (545 F.Supp.2d 692). Both companies co-located in Karmiel Israel (pop ~45K). (2) Barak Political: Founder Dov Lautman donated to Barak's 1999 campaign via 'Generation of Peace' (Barak Affair scandal). Barak had 444 emails with Epstein + received $2.3M from Wexner Foundation (2004-06). (3) Israeli Establishment: Lautman was President of Manufacturers Association of Israel, PM Rabin's special emissary, TAU chairman — overlapping with Wexner Foundation's 650-member Israeli alumni network. The complete corpus absence suggests the DG relationship was handled through Wexner's corporate infrastructure (Mast Industries) not Epstein's personal network. Separately, current CEO Isaac Dabah (since 2008) has a 1994 SDNY criminal conviction for import fraud (garment country-of-origin mislabeling) and is a major AIPAC donor ($100K to United Democracy Project 2024).

Delta Galil Industries Ltd is listed in the UN OHCHR Business and Human Rights Database (debarment list) for operations in Israeli settlements. LittleSis notes branches in settlement neighborhoods of Pisgat Zeev and Ramot in occupied East Jerusalem and in Maale Adumim in the occupied West Bank. OpenSanctions dataset ps_ohchr_settlement, activity code (g). Company also previously listed on NASDAQ (SEC CIK 0001081022, SIC 2340) but delisted in March 2008 (Form 25, 15-12G deregistration). Created 1961, headquartered at 45 Ha'Eshel St, Caesarea, Israel.

Delta Galil Industries listed in UN OHCHR database (BHR) of companies involved in Israeli settlement activities (category g). Company operates facilities in occupied territories: branches in settlement neighborhoods Pisgat Zeev and Ramot in East Jerusalem, location in Ma'ale Adumim settlement (West Bank), and 1,680 sqm warehouse in Barkan industrial zone (West Bank, documented May 2011). OpenSanctions ID: ohchr-e23c9d0fa04724b6c4108ec8e42db7b83eb9ffcb. Topics: debarment. This is the same company that is a major Victoria's Secret supplier — creating reputational risk for the Wexner supply chain.

Delta Galil global corporate footprint per OCCRP Aleph and LittleSis: Subsidiaries include Delta Galil USA Inc (NY, est 1985, PA addresses), Delta Galil Switzerland GmbH, Delta Galil Germany GmbH (Radolfzell, currently registered + earlier Frankfurt entity removed), Delta Galil Textile Germany GmbH & Co. KG (Radolfzell, registered + Frankfurt removed), Delta Galil Holland BV (Swiss branch, dissolved 3 days after registration 2013), Delta Galil Romania SRL (Arad, status: accounts not filed 2008), Delta Textile Egypt SAE (subsidiary), 7 For All Mankind (acquired 2016), Thai Progress Garments Co Ltd (subsidiary). Current revenue + billion (2024). Institutional investor GMM Capital LLC (Dabah family vehicle). Former Karmiel underwear factory closed ~2005, but socks and seamless factories remain in Israel.

Delta Galil's Karmiel factory closed ~2005 (last Israeli underwear plant), with 150 workers let go. However, Limited Brands 2007 annual report still listed a Karmiel Israel office. This suggests the Karmiel office was NOT part of Delta Galil's factory but was a separate Mast Industries/Limited Brands sourcing or quality control operation co-located in the same town as Delta Galil's facilities. Delta Galil still operates 3 socks factories in Israel plus 2 seamless activewear factories in Israel and Jordan. Company also has subsidiaries in Germany (Radolfzell, Frankfurt — registered and removed), Switzerland, Romania, Egypt, Thailand, and Holland.

Delta Galil Industries is listed in the UN OHCHR Business and Human Rights database (OpenSanctions ID ohchr-e23c9d0fa04724b6c4108ec8e42db7b83eb9ffcb) for settlement activities, with branches in Pisgat Zeev, Ramot (occupied East Jerusalem) and Maale Adumim (occupied West Bank). This designation creates reputational and regulatory exposure for the company and its business partners including Victoria's Secret/L Brands.

NEGATIVE RESULT: No mentions of Delta Galil Industries, Dov Lautman, or Isaac Dabah found in Epstein document corpus (DOJ Vol 11, LMSBAND, Unified DB, Epstein 20K, Investigations DB) or in Deutsche Bank DS10 financial records. The 1000 DugganUSA hits for 'Delta Galil' were all OCR false positives. No financial transactions between Epstein entities and Delta Galil detected. No property records for Delta Galil or Dov Lautman in NYC ACRIS. No FARA registration. No FinCEN SARs.

Delta Galil Industries, Dov Lautman, Isaac Dabah, and Karmiel do NOT appear in any Epstein document corpus (DugganUSA 204K, DOJ Vol 11 331K, LMSBAND 60K, Unified DB 70K, Epstein 20K 25.8K docs). Zero mentions across 690K+ documents. This absence is investigatively significant given Delta Galil's documented role as major Victoria's Secret supplier and the Wexner-Epstein financial relationship. No FARA registrations for Delta Galil, Lautman, or Dabah despite Israeli manufacturer with US lobbying activity and settlement operations.

Delta Galil USA Inc confirmed in NY SoS as foreign business corporation (DOS ID 998313), filed 1985-05-20, incorporated in Delaware. Process server address: 1601 Sycamore Road, Montoursville PA 17754 (matches the 350K sqft warehouse from SEC filing). CEO listed as Itzhak Weinstock of Secaucus NJ.

Delta Galil Industries Ltd (CIK 1081022, SIC 2340) was Nasdaq-listed (DELT) Israeli foreign private issuer filing 20-F reports 2002-2008. Had 34 subsidiaries including 4 US entities: Delta Galil USA Inc (DE), Burlen Corp (GA, acquired Dec 2004 for $48.2M), Auburn Hosiery Mills Inc (KY), Delta Textile New York Ltd (NY).

GLEIF confirms two Delta Galil LEIs: (1) 213800THWVY4MIDWYH93 for parent Delta Galil Industries Ltd in Caesarea Israel (registered as 520025602), and (2) 254900GPGMM61WTUP963 for Delta Galil Tifton LLC in Georgia (c/o Corporation Service Company, Peachtree Corners GA). Tifton LLC is likely successor to Burlen Corp operations. Subsidiary Schiesser GmbH (LEI 529900A1QBY599PBKW22) in Radolfzell Germany is also confirmed as Delta Galil child entity.

Delta Galil 20-F confirms principal production facility in Karmiel, Israel (534,000 sq ft textile manufacturing). This is the same Karmiel listed as an overseas office of Limited Brands in its 2007 10-K (EFTA00190233). The co-location of Delta Galil's primary manufacturing and Wexner's Limited Brands overseas office in the same small Israeli city (pop. ~45,000) demonstrates deep operational integration between the companies.

Limited Brands 2007 10-K (EFTA00190170) lists Rio Rancho, New Mexico as a 75,000 sq ft 'call center' facility. Separately, LMSBAND docs (EFTA01346604, EFTA01349365) show checks written from 120 10th Ave SW, Rio Rancho NM 87124 for Zorro Ranch renovation work ('Proj 126 - Refurb Staff Cottage'). While the LB call center and Zorro Ranch construction payments originate from the same small NM city (~100K pop.), no direct connection between the LB facility and Epstein operations has been found in the corpus.

Exhaustive search of all local document databases (DOJ Vol 11: 331K pages, DugganUSA: 204K docs, LMSBAND: 60K docs/851K entities, Unified DB: 70K docs, Epstein 20K: 25.8K docs, Investigations DB: 22 docs, EpsteinExposed: 1.3K persons, 13K jeeproject emails, 1.4K Barak emails) returns ZERO results for 'Delta Galil', 'Dov Lautman', 'Isaac Dabah', 'Noam Lautman', or 'Karmiel'. Despite Delta Galil being a major supplier to Wexner's Victoria's Secret and both companies co-located in Karmiel, there is no mention of Delta Galil in any Epstein communication, document, or financial record in the released corpus. This absence is noteworthy given the 700K+ pages searched.
