The company is based in the capital of Lakka, Souliou, in Thesprotiko, Preveza.

The life of our beekeeping family is lost in the distant past. Local memories, family documents testify to occupation of four generations. In fact, at the end of the previous century, the folk poet of his monumental work “Gena” states: We know about great-grandfather Philip that sometime in 1880 he had built a bee hive in Mavri. At the beginning of the century, returning from the Asia Minor war, grandfather Theodoris, who ate a plate of honey every day, took over for Leonidas’ father to follow.

Since 1955, our father, a pioneer beekeeper, practices nomadic beekeeping in the region of Epirus with the difficult means of the time. The evolution is that in the mid-1980s the business ended up in the three sons who were students and then students-students who managed to continue the beekeeping unit.

From the beginning of 1990 they settled entirely in the village and enlarged the unit by moving it to a large part of Greece. The development culminates in the creation of a vertically integrated production of hive products (Honey, Pollen, Royal Jelly) and honey packaging.

The movements of the unit take place in the virgin lands of the mainland, in the pine forests of Halkidiki and Evia, in Mainalo.

The care, control and conscientiousness of hive products give the consumer unique products that contribute to nutrition.
