Yafit Greenberg (Шаблон:Lang-he; 9 August 1951 – 30 November 2021), commonly known as G. Yafit (Шаблон:Lang-he, Gimmel Yafit), was an Israeli businesswoman specialising in advertising.[1]

Biography

Greenberg was born Yaffa Maimon[2] in Bnei Brak in 1951 to a traditionalist Jewish family who had immigrated from Tripoli in Libya, and was one of five daughters. She studied geography and education at Bar-Ilan University.[3]

She began working in marketing for Lahitun magazine,[3] before switching to advertising, establishing the G. Yafit company in 1977.[4] The company initially posted advertisements in newspapers, the first of which was an advert for Tadiran refrigerators in Yedioth Ahronoth.[4] When commercial television began broadcasting in 1993, she began offering low-cost advertisement slots in a similar style to the newspaper adverts. Her unusual advertising style[5] saw her front the advert herself to talk about the product. Her daughter-in-law, Maya Yeshayahu, also began appearing alongside her in the adverts.[2]

In June 2014 a group of investors led by G. Yafit acquired the Steimatzky bookstore chain from Markstone Capital Partners.[6]

She died of cancer on 30 November 2021 at the age of 70.[2]
