Couple from Gaza starts home-baked bread business to support their family

Failing to find a job to support his family of five, 30-year-old Islam from Gaza started a home-baked bread business with his wife Eman under the name “Our Home Bread” as a means to overcome the difficult living condition. The bread made by the couple is different than store-bought bread, it has a home-made quality that customers love.

The couple started by baking 100 loaves of bread, their business took off after advertising on social media and the amount of bread produced has multiplied.

The couple is having great trouble with the lack of equipment that Eman is suffering wrist pain from kneading in addition to the constant blackouts. Their determination however to continue moving forward in this business has secured the livelihood of their family.
