Kibbutz Dan is located in the north of the Hula Valley, at the foot of Mount Hermon in northern Israel. The kibbutz is currently evacuated.

One of the first economic branches was a cooperative trout-breeding venture with nearby Dafna, also a kibbutz. The Caviar Galilee Company, which exports caviar under the brand name “Karat Caviar,” is based on the kibbutz. According to Eric Ripert, chef and proprietor of Le Bernadin, considered the leading seafood restaurant in New York, and Jean Francois Bruel, chef of Daniel, a Michelin 3-star rated restaurant in Manhattan’s Upper East Side, the best caviar on the market today is produced by Kibbutz Dan. The kibbutz exports caviar to the United States, Europe, Russia, Japan, Singapore and Canada.
