KIBBUTZ SHAMIR, Israel, July 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Shamir Optical Industry Ltd. (Nasdaq: SHMR) ("Shamir"), a leading provider of innovative products and technology to the lens market, announced today that it has signed an agreement yesterday, June 30, 2008, pursuant to which it has purchased 49% of Altra Trading GmbH ("Altra") from its minority shareholder.

"We would like to thank our departing partner for his productive work, loyalty and dedicated service to Altra, and we wish him well in his future endeavors," said Eyal Hayardeny, chief executive officer of Shamir.
