If you are coming from the center of town take Derech Chevron South. Make a right on HaUman St. At the second light the street will change into Derech Moshe Baram. 150 meters AFTER the intersection make a left and follow the road to the left where you will see a sign for Pantry Packers.

Using ‘Waze’ or ‘Google Maps’ search (in English) for “Pantry Packers”.

It will take you straight to the warehouse.
