New York, NY (June 4, 2026)

B&H Photo employees are set to receive an additional week of wages as a company bonus, following an announcement from CEO Menashe Horowitz recognizing staff performance and ongoing financial pressures facing workers.

In a message to employees, Horowitz said the company had completed a successful year despite a difficult retail environment and credited the workforce for its dedication, effort, and strong results. He also acknowledged that many households continue to feel the impact of inflation and elevated living costs.

The bonus is intended to provide employees with added support as families manage higher expenses for everyday needs. It will be calculated as one extra week of regular wages and will not include overtime pay. The payment is expected to be processed during the current payroll cycle.

The announcement comes shortly before B&H’s annual salary review period. Horowitz indicated that regular raise discussions are expected to take place in the coming weeks, giving employees another potential opportunity for increased compensation.

B&H Photo, headquartered in New York City, is one of the world’s leading retailers of photography, video, audio, computer, and imaging equipment. Its flagship Manhattan store is widely known among professionals, hobbyists, and production teams, while its online operation serves customers across the United States and internationally.

The company is also recognized for operating in accordance with Torah-based values, including closing its Manhattan store and suspending website checkout on Shabbos and Yom Tov.

The added wages reflect a broader effort by the company to recognize employees during a period when many workers continue to face rising costs. For staff members, the extra paycheck is expected to offer timely relief while the company prepares for its upcoming compensation review cycle.
