Our story

About Us - Urban Dvash

Welcome to Urban Dvash, where passion for beekeeping has blossomed into a thriving, community-centered venture! Our story began in 2015 when our founder, Yoav Sasportas, embarked on a volunteer journey at a local bee farm, driven by a genuine curiosity about the world of bees.

During his time at the farm, Yoav’s enthusiasm and dedication led to a surplus of honey. Rather than let it go to waste, he saw an opportunity to share the sweetness with his neighbors. This marked the beginning of Urban Dvash—a small initiative focused on bringing high-quality honey to the local community.

As Urban Dvash honey began filling local homes, Yoav’s entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to beekeeping became evident. The demand for our honey grew, laying the foundation for what would become a beloved local brand.

In 2019, Yoav took a major step by acquiring the very bee farm where his beekeeping journey had started. This move allowed him to deepen his expertise, ensure the quality of our honey, and expand our operations, transforming Urban Dvash from a small-scale project into a thriving business.

Today, Urban Dvash is a family-run enterprise based in and around Montreal, producing honey that reflects Yoav's dedication and the support of our amazing community. Our story is one of passion, growth, and the deep bond between people and the bees that sustain us.

We invite you to join us on this sweet journey! Explore our premium honey products and be part of the Urban Dvash community, where every jar carries the love and care of our buzzing friends.
