«Greek exports during the Covid-19 era» The pandemic has changed international trade and disrupted traditional economic activities. It has interrupted the growth course of several export sectors like machinery and industrial goods, it has speeded up the exports of sectors like pharmaceuticals, F&B and chemicals and finally has closed the gap in the trade balance due to the slump in imports.
us. With Greek exports accounting to only 37% of GDP vis a vis 48% EU average, it becomes essential to boost exports. Apart from the economic and trade challenges, the pandemic has also highlighted the importance of digital transformation for resilient exports. Digital technologies become important on how to manage operation. Digital Marketing and e-commerce have emerged as the key to enhance exports and competitiveness of enterprises.
As far as destinations are concerned, the EU has absorbed more than half of the Greek exports. However, traditional destinations for Greek exports like Italy and Spain, have witnessed a collapse. Therefore, exporters must constantly For almost a year, we did observe Dr George Xirogiannis, improve their performance and meet the severe delays in payments from abroad, Deputy Director General, SEV digital challenges in international trade. cancellation of orders and strong SEV’s members make up a wide range difficulty to access critical raw materials of industrial products and account for the (e.g. in manufacturing, food sectors, etc). This situation 45% of the country’s export activity (including shipping has created a suffocating liquidity environment for several and tourism). Throughout the pandemic, SEV has stood by Greek companies. its members and contributed to their efforts to mitigate the negative economic impact. 2020, was in a word, the year of «slowbalization» i.e. slowdown of the global economy with trade tensions, During the lockdown, SEV has shared strategic barriers in the global supply chains and adverse effect on intelligence regarding any legislative developments at typical commercial activity. The World Trade Organization local and EU level, submitted memos and lobbied with (WTO) has predicted a 30% drop in international trade and decision makers to remedy the difficulties faced by many has also forecasted a double-digit drop in trading volumes exporters. worldwide. In general, our members have endured the pandemic Regarding Greece, the effects of the pandemic became and are currently returning on a sound financial footing. more noticeable in exports mainly during Q1 2020. But the upward trend soon resumed and consolidated previous Ιn this new imports / exports order, international trade losses. Greek exports (excluding oil and ships) during the skills may outweigh production capabilities. To seize the period January-November 2020 showed an increase of opportunities presented during this crisis, one has to adapt 2.3%, compared to period January-November 2019. to new business practices internationally and to identify the new supply chain characteristics. After all, adaptation This progress, although positive, should not reassure has always been the key to trade survival.

Obviously, the closure of large main industrial sector in Greece reaching segments of the food service sector €15 billion in turnover, while being (restaurants, hotels, bars, cafeterias, a key job provider, with 1,200 active etc.) resulted to a drastic drop in of enterprises and more than 360,000 direct the turnover of certain food and drink and indirect employees.

Exports ensure the viability of the Greek pharmaceutical industry Greek pharmaceutical companies have always adopted an export orientation, since Greek medicines reach more than 85 countries. However, exports have in fact become the main strategic choice, since companies supplying the domestic market and the National Health System are “punished” by the imposition of exorbitant mandatory rebates. With most of the production destined for export, the rebate and clawback burden, which in total exceeds 1.0 billion euros, is bypassed.
Pharmaceutical products have been established in recent years as the Greek economy’s most important exportable products, following petroleum products. This was the result of, on the one hand, the large production potential of the domestic pharmaceutical industry with the high quality of the products produced, and on the other, the need to find a way out of the suffocating and distorted framework under which clawback operates in the Greek market.
In recent years, medicine exports have However, there has to be an end to been growing steadily. In 2019, the the unrealistic indirect over-taxation, total value of exported pharmaceutical Dimitris P. Giannakopoulos up to 70% of the turnover of the Greek products rose to 1.9 billion euros, President of BoD & CEO pharmaceutical industry, along with accounting for 4.4% of total Greek direct taxation. Charges need to be exports of all goods. This increase, by streamlined by significantly reducing clawback and 32.5% compared to 2018, was described as spectacular by ensuring adequate public funding to meet the needs of the the Foundation for Economic & Industrial Research (IOBE) population. In addition to the positive step of decoupling in a recent study on the pharmaceutical market in Greece vaccines from pharmaceutical expenditure, it is necessary and the industry’s contribution to Greece’s economy. to provide funding to cover uninsured citizens. In addition, In 2020, with the outbreak of the new coronavirus the ‘clawback - investment cost’ offset measure needs pandemic, medicine exports recorded a new leap. Data to be strengthened by increasing the available offset by the Panhellenic Exporters Association (PEA) show an amount. This will result in new investments, as well as new increase of 59.7% in the first half of 2020 compared to the collaborations between Greek and foreign pharmaceutical corresponding period of 2019, with the share of medicines companies with positive results in exports as well. in total exports rising above 6%. The pharmaceutical industry is of strategic importance to the country, with its GDP share estimated at 6.9 billion euros. The industry’s contribution to the health system was clearly seen during the pandemic. The fact that Greece has a strong domestic medicine production is a comparative advantage for the country. It is time for the State to recognize this and plan the required growth policies.
Of particular importance is the fact that exports increased after the domestic needs for medicines were fully met. While the coronavirus pandemic created serious shortages of medicines in several European countries, the Greek pharmaceutical industry ensured adequacy of the necessary first-line medicines in our country, fully covering the needs of more than three (3) million insured and patients.

Restarting Greece’s economy, based on a new production model, structural reforms and extroversion reforms, what is valuable at this stage is a change of culture, as well as an emphasis on a new production, growth and extroversion model. According to a survey by the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV), the business environment in the Covid-19 era is changing dramatically.

Plans also include a series of business delegations, supporting the Greek participation in German trade exhibitions, taking place either in digital form or in person, depending on Covid-19 conditions, along with the participation of Greek entrepreneurs in Greek National Pavilions at international trade shows organized by German trade exhibition organizations in Germany and worldwide. The German-Hellenic Chamber will continue to support the relationship between the two countries, fully acknowledging that Germany is considered a strategic commercial and investment partner for Greece. It is important to note, that Germany holds the first place as a country of origin for direct foreign investment in Greece, with a 23% share of the total invested capital reserve and with net German direct investments amounting to €6.3 billion for the period 2007-2018. In this respect, the German-Hellenic Chamber as an institution will remain at the front line of action with a dual focus: on one hand, functioning as a central “portal” of extroversion for all Greek companies with a commercial and investment orientation extending beyond Greek borders and specifically towards Germany; and on the other hand, acting as an informal “ambassador” and “governmental partner-advisor” of Greece to the German business community, highlighting the investment opportunities offered by the country.

The plastics industry: A pillar of export growth In the past decade, the Greek Plastics Industry has undergone a significant transformation, resulting in its current export-oriented character. At the peak of the severe economic recession that hit Greece, the plastics industry displayed enviable resilience. Branches of our industry have proven to be rightly considered a synonym for innovation, flexibility and adaptability, with all these properties of plastics having helped shape a better future for mankind. More specifically, since the beginning of the economic recession in Greece, between 2009 and 2018, the overall value Vasilis Gounaris, of exported plastics has dramatically President of AHPI increased by 56.1%. The industry’s share of the total domestic products exported accounted for 3.8% in 2018, as shown in a recent study published by the Foundation for Economic & Industrial Research (IOBE). Since I assumed the leadership of the Association of Hellenic Plastic Industries - AHPI, I have always considered this IOBE study as an emblematic and high-value research, summarizing the valuable contribution of our industry to the Greek economy. In this study, the value of exports in 2018 amounted to €1.2 billion, the highest level by historical standards, which represents an increase of 5.6% as compared with 2017. However, this steadily upward trend is threatened by the Covid-19 pandemic, whose severe second wave we are now experiencing in our country as well. Due to this unprecedented health crisis, we have reset our priorities. As a result, the stringent protective measures that have been applied all over the world have also affected Greek exports, as shown by the early ELSTAT (Hellenic Statistical Authority) data. Those measures taken to effectively address the pandemic cast a heavy toll on small and medium-sized enterprises, which are struggling to deal with the extra bureaucratic burden.
22
In this unusual period, under extremely adverse conditions, the export-oriented Greek plastics industry shows increased resilience, readiness and creative alertness, while at the same time looking for ways to maintain the growth pace that I mentioned above, and turn our industry into a key pillar for Greece’s economic growth. Furthermore, plastic products, whose value has been questioned because of today’s poor waste management systems, have emerged as a material that has frequently played an essential role in preserving our safety, through the production of personal protective equipment, such as disposable masks, gloves, antiseptic packages and so on. That was another activity that contributed to increasing exports, as a result of the pandemic. Recently, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis made it clear that the national objectives, such as the increased contribution of exports to GNP from 38% to 48%, have remained constant. In the past decade, the Greek plastics industry has proven that it can drastically contribute to this national objective, as shown by the Foundation for Economic & Industrial Research (IOBE) study. Summing up, despite the difficulties resulting from the pandemic, exports could become the vessel for our return to growth. The unique characteristics of plastics allow the industry to significantly contribute to adopting a sustainable growth model that will be assisted by an effective Circular Economy. Plastics contribute to saving energy resources in strategic sectors, such as retail sales, construction, healthcare, car industry, renewable energy sources, etc. These advantages provide Greece with a great opportunity at a crucial moment. I strongly believe that investing in and helping the plastics industry is the path towards economic growth and creating high-quality job opportunities.

EXTROVERSION The one-way road to the development of Greek dairy products In Greece, unfortunately an absolutely demagogic ideology was promoted (and still is) which is the targeting of the primary and secondary production towards the self-sufficiency of the country. There is nothing more wrong and more dangerous national policy than this. Unfortunately, we did not understand the simplest fact that each country produces certain products (not all) which are unique in terms of identity and quality and/or cost. For many obvious reasons, we cannot compete any product in the world in the cost, quality, uniqueness. The goal of any production should be only to maximize profitability of the producer and consequently growth in the broader area where it is produced. There is no point to produce any product no matter the cost or the quality, just
Dr. Christos Apostolopoulos, President of the Board Federation of Greek Dairy Industries (SEVGAP)

for the shake of self-sufficiency. Most of EU countries understood this much earlier than us and applied this much more effectively, investing in the production of value-added, high-quality and innovative products. Most producers of Greek Dairy products have spent many years in order to realize the uniqueness of Greek products that they produce and their unparalleled value so they began to increase substantially their exports. Unfortunately for the most part, Greek production missed many trains which were full of growth and profitability opportunities. However today, exporting is expanding more and more every year among the Greek dairy companies, but it is not a result of a strategic choice but rather a wayout of the economic recession of the
Greek market. These rather «forced exports”, cannot achieve prices that correspond to the quality of the Greek dairy products but create conditions of competition that keep the prices quite low. Indeed, Greek Dairy companies have significantly increased their exports in recent years, even during the year of the pandemic (in 2020), when the contacts and distribution of products faced several serious obstacles. This is even more apparent for the two famous Greek products: Feta cheese and the well known «Greek Yogurt» which they deserve a far better place in the pyramid of value, far away from the products made of cheap raw materials and of course even further more the counterfeit products which only serve the consumers’ deception. However, beyond the balance of these basic trade policies that should be followed, dairy companies need to look a little further into the future and the changes it will bring. The first, which is no longer the future but absolutely the present, is the sustainability, of production, trade and the business in general. It will soon be not just a valued characteristic but expected and the base of any product. The 2nd is the 4th industrial revolution which is actually not far at all. Through it, procedures and commercial practices will become automated and smart, without borders, which require appropriate investments, else it would be very difficult for the companies to follow the markets smart demands. The Greek dairy companies, which have proven that they have nothing to envy from any foreign company, in terms of the technological level of their production, are ready to do these next steps which for sure will be full of challenges but also full of opportunities.

Hellenic chemical industry ahead of covid19 challenges The European chemical industry including a small but vigorous Greek sector, has been playing an essential role during the COVID-19 crisis. In lieu of their responsibility, chemical companies have been contributing by: • pushing their capacity limits to meet the exponential rise in demand for disinfectants, diagnostic tests, ventilators, protective masks, gloves and gowns, Intensive Care Unit medicines and equipment and protective clothing; • forming new alliances and shifting their production processes to adapt to the new needs; • donating funds or critical supplies to Vassilis Gounaris, Haci President hospitals and medical facilities.

Facts and figures of the hellenic chemical industry
Opportunities to expand further the hellenic chemical industry’s exports 1. Customs: It is crucial to change, alter and transform the operating model by the total digitalization of processes and the flexibility in their response to new data. 2. Redesign of the EU Funds 2021-27 thus contributing to the enlargement (scaleup) of domestic productive-extroverted enterprises with larger and unified programs. 3. Eligibility of digital exhibitions in the current program “Operating Outside” since traditional exhibitions are not held. 4. Inclusion of private chemical industry investments until 2023 in the Recovery Fund, emphasizing on both export companies and those that will strengthen the trade balance, by substituting imports. We refer to green and digital technologies, R & D, location in industrial parks, etc.
Chemical exports have significantly increased last years
5. Target markets Given that 65% of chemical exports go to EU countries, there is a great deal of room for growth in third countries, especially in the Middle East and Africa. The experience of approaching Saudi Arabia is positive, taking advantage of the gap left by Turkey due to its policies. Greece has groups of products and services that are very competitive, we refer to all kinds of specialized building materials (coatings, paints, sealants, thermal insulation, resins, etc.), disinfectants, surfactants, consumer products, etc.

Wines of Greece: Promotional activities for a sustainable future The Greek wine industry showed amazing in consumption trends. Consumers are resilience and growth during the past 10 buying more entry-level wines in offyears, in spite of a decade-long recession premise locations, like supermarkets that began in 2010. Greek winemakers have and wine shops. Also, a strong “drink invested in modern winemaking technology local” trend is making exports even more and vineyards for several decades now, difficult, as locally produced wines have while the wine sector has created a been the big winner in countries with national marketing plan for implementing major domestic wine production. Even promotional activities around the world. though the Covid-19 crisis has boosted While a new, enhanced image of Greek wine wine e-commerce volume by more boosted exports around the world, when than 180% on average, e-commerce the Covid-19 pandemic struck, no sector represents only 1 %of sales and will not was affected more than the wine industry compensate for the current lost sales. and the restaurant trade, on which higher Apart from the effect of Covid-19, wine value wines depend. With restaurants consumption has been seriously dropping being a major focus of our promotional George Skouras, in the traditional European markets for and educational activities, Covid-19 caused President of Greek Wine Federation years now, and we need to promote the a market share loss in Greek wines around health benefits and enjoyment of wine, the world. while always in moderation. The devastating effects of Covid-19 on the European winemaking sector are resulting in short and long-term structural changes that are still under way. This changing reality requires that we re-think our promotional goals with a new vision. The key to navigating this new paradigm is to include flexibility, allowing for adjustments during the execution of our promotional activities, while taking into consideration what is working and what is not.
The sustainability of the EU wine sector will depend on its capacity to recover wine markets back to 2019 levels within the next 2 or 3 years. On average, estimates for EU winery sales are down by 25%, with smaller wineries down by 35%. The impact of the crisis has been especially hard on small producers, who are more dependent on restaurants and have less access to larger wine outlets and super markets. In addition, many southern European countries are experiencing severe repercussions because a large percentage of their economies is based on tourism which was devastated by the Covid-19 pandemic. So, as we work on recovery for on-trade markets, support for tourism and oenotourism activities need to be included. Strong, innovative online and other promotional programs need to be created that support Oenotourism and the thousands of families who have been earning a living from the bounty of the grape vine.
The collapse of the HORECA market, which has been a major focus of our recent efforts, will need a promotional program to “reboot” thinking from scratch. In addition to promotion within each country, strong, coordinated promotional programs within different EU member states are needed. Recent studies on alcohol consumption while under confinement show it is stable or decreasing, with a shift

THE COVID-19 YEAR farmers and the industry and close collaboration with the Ministry of Rural Development to allow essential seasonal workers to arrive and harvest crops.
2020 has been one of the most extraordinary years in memory for all of us. The food industry is no exemption. When 2020 started, we expected that the US punitive tariffs and the conclusion of BREXIT would be our greatest concerns. As 2020 ends, we are happy that we managed to process all available quantity of fruits produced by our farmers, to keep our buyers satisfied by supplying to their increased demand, to keep supermarkets across Europe and the whole world well-stocked for consumers.
Another great challenge was the operation of the factories during the pandemic. Processing of fruits is a labor-intensive economic activity. Cling peaches are harvested and processed in a short campaign of two months. Greek fruit processing factories are highly experienced in implementing protocols. They each developed their own plan to operate while implementing social distancing and personal safety. We also Konstantinos Apostolou, created a COVID-19 task-force in our The food industry was affected in many President of the Greek Canners Association with participation from ways by the pandemic. In our case, sales Association (EKE) every factory in order to exchange useful and shipments were the first activities to material, experiences of dealing with specific issues and witness disruption.

For the biggest part of the campaign, sizes surged when the first lockdowns went into effect and positive cases were discovered promptly and production remains high. Consumers rushed to the supermarkets was not affected. When the second wave begun in Greece, to stock on food, and our fruits were among their first a few factories had to close as a precaution. Eventually, choices. Canned and frozen fruits count as much as fresh we managed to process all fruits made available by our to reach the “5 A Day” goal of every healthy diet.

service provider that can increase your company’s sales, but also a partner you can trust, to deal with crises and unexpected market events. A very recent example is the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused havoc in the global economy, unlike anything we have seen before. Our experience, expertise and ΙΤ infrastructure, gave us the capability not only to support our partners to get out of this crisis and to effectively cope with new challenges, but also to strengthen their position in market.
In addition, as the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread, with a sense of responsibility for companies who face difficulties due to staff absence from sales departments, we decided to introduce a flexible cooperation scheme, for as long as the crisis lasts. Our proposed services can increase a company’s sales instantly, by frequent communication through scheduled in-store visits; specialized merchandising services, provided by our experienced representatives in supermarkets; logging, stock counting, putting products on the shelf and recommendations to the supermarket manager, on the amount of stock to order, a process which, as statistically proven, leads to indirect and continuous increased sales. Our services guarantee the continuous presence of products in supermarkets, while the product management process reflects our professionalism and benefits our clients with added value.
As presence in supermarkets is necessary, ADUS never stops its operation, especially during the “lockdown” period, when a product’s shortage would have an almost double cost for the company, as consumers would opt for an alternative, prescribing the product’s poor future sales. As health and safety of our staff members is a paramount priority, ADUS adopted all safety measures introduced by the WHO (World Health Organization), to ensure health protection of both customers and staff. Meanwhile, our web-based structures and technologies limited the levels of our exposure. Our security-focused approach gave comfort to supermarket staff, in turn allowing us to continue our work.

126 years of history
20 Anapafseos str., 19003 Markopoulo Tel.: +30 22990 22231 Website: www.greek-wine-cellars.com
‘Greek Wine Cellars - D. Kourtakis S.A.’ was established in 1895 by Vassilis Kourtakis (1865-1946), the first Greek oenologist in contemporary Greece to hold a degree in oenology. Vassilis Kourtakis began his wine-making activities in Markopoulo, 30 km east of Athens, in the plain of the Mesogia, Attica. At the time the region was a major wine-growing and wine-producing area. Soon, the company Vassilis Kourtakis had founded grew into one of the major wine producers of Greece. In those days, wine was sold in bulk, targeting mostly the Athenian market and the nearby islands of the Argosaronic Gulf. In the early 20th century, the favorite wine of Athenians was none other than the traditional Retsina wine. Soon, Vassilis Kourtakis began to be touted as the wine producer who crafted the choicest of Retsina wines, a Retsina that had consistent quality, fine taste, and aroma. Dimitris Kourtakis (1908-2005), son of Vassilis, studied oenology in France in the 1930’s and emerged a fully-fledged oenologist. Being a cosmopolitan man who was widely traveled, Dimitris realized it was high time marketing practices entered the world of Greek wine. Putting an end to bulk distribution, he began bottling the company’s wine. It was time indeed: the quantities of Retsina that Dimitris Kourtakis produced were so massive that General de Gaulle, then President of France, said on his state visit to Greece: “Kourtakis produces so much wine that the entire French fleet could sail in it.” In the late 1960’s, Vassilis Kourtakis, the third generation of the Kourtakis family, the grandson of the founder and son of Dimitris and today’s Chairman and Managing Director of ‘Greek Wine Cellars – D. Kourtakis S.A., took over the company’s reins. Following in his father’s footsteps, he obtained an oenology degree from Dijon, France, complementing it with a degree in Business Administration from England. His entry into the company was accompanied by fresh ideas, youthful drive, and plans to conquer new markets beyond the borders of Greece. Soon Vassili Kourtakis’wine credentials were being recognized. He was appointed 3 times President of the Greek Wine & Spirits Association, and this was followed by an eight year term as elected President of the European Wine Committee based in Brussels and Vice-President of the Vitivinicultural Advisory Committee. For these services to the wine industry he was created an Honorary Life President of the European Wine Committee. In 1972 the company became a ‘Societé Anonyme’ while steadily the
96
commercial success of the highly acclaimed ‘Retsina Kourtaki’ scaled new heights. From 1980 onwards company sales in Greece exceeded 60 million bottles annually. At the same time the company began to export its renowned Retsina: the Greeks of the Diaspora, scattered around the globe, sought out their beloved Retsina which brought the homeland closer to them. In the mid-1980’s Vassilis Kourtakis created a state-of-the-art winery in Ritsona, Viotia. The new, ultra-modern plant had the capacity of vinifying from each harvest 30 million kilograms of grapes. In the meantime, while continuing with the production of its Retsina, the company adopted cutting-edge winemaking methods and engaged in the production of a new range of non-resinated wines. In 1985, the company launched its Apelia range. The new wine came in 75cl and 1.5 liter bottles and was destined for home consumption within the Greek market. Ten years later, in 1995, one of every two economy-sized bottles of wine consumed by Greek households at the dinner table would be the 1.5-liter bottle of white, rosé, red, or medium sweet Apelia wine. In 1992, the rapid pace of growth of its exports and the need to expand its wine portfolio led the company to enter into a pioneering co-operation with the Calliga winery. ‘Greek Wine Cellars’ would take over both the production and sales of the Calliga products in Greece and abroad, thus adding a premium quality range of wines to its own portfolio. Additionally, the export drive of the company continued to take off, with exports to 32 countries around the world. In 2000 exports accounted for nearly half of the company’s annual turnover. In 2004, the company took yet another decisive step by buying 50% of the share capital of ‘Oenoforos S.A.’, thereby undertaking to sell the ‘boutique’ wines of the noted and respected winemaker, Angelos Rouvalis. This union resulted in further success: ‘Asprolithi,’ a wine crafted by ‘Oenoforos’ continued its popular course in the Greek market, and two more wine brands crafted by Angelos Rouvalis, ‘Mikros Vorias’ and ‘Ianos’, were given a chance to show their merits. In late 2009 ‘Greek Wine Cellars’ began a co-operation with the group ‘Grands Chais de France’ to distribute the GCF products in Greece. This leading French producer and seller of wines is especially noted for its JP Chenet
range of wines. This is the No. 1 selling brand of French wine worldwide. Annual production of the JP Chenet wine range exceeds 400 million bottles. By this move, ‘Greek Wine Cellars’ added to its product range a renowned selection of imported wines, both still and sparkling, that were previously entirely absent, thereby complementing the company’s own portfolio of Greek wines. The latest successful deal was concluded by ‘Greek Wine Cellars’ in March 2010. By this it became the sole distributor of the Babatzim products in both Greece and abroad. Anestis Babatzimopoulos is a gifted winemaker and distiller who, on his estate at Ossa, near Thessaloniki, produces the famous ouzo and tsipouro that have rightfully earned him the title of ‘master of distillation’ year after year. Through this latest commercial partnership not only the choice wines of this noted vineyard in Macedonia have been added to the wine portfolio offered by ‘Greek Wine Cellars’ but also, for the first time, the company has entered the spirits business, by selling and distributing the premium Greek distillations of ouzo and tsiporo from Babatzim.

Creativity, high aesthetics, timelessness
Bringing luxury and elegance in the kitchen Kitchen furniture firm Gruppo Cucine has been identified by founder Constantinos Leventakis’ creativity, sensitivity and insight since its inception. Constantinos’ goal, in addition to constructing kitchen furniture, was to add beauty and elegance to the daily life of hundreds of families. The company’s experience may be now counting several years, but its vision remains the same: “to use our craftsmanship and creativity to make the lives of our fellow human beings more beautiful, offering them unique kitchens to enjoy moments of happiness with their loved ones.” Gruppo Cucine has established itself as a leader in the Greek market as a result of the unique, modern and quality Italian kitchen furniture it offers, as well as the personal and timeless relationships of trust it has built throughout its operation.
George Leventakis, CEO & Co-Founder
Administration Furthering the vision and course of the family business he founded together with his father Constantinos and his siblings Sofia and Aris, George Leventakis (CEO and Co-Founder), succeeded in just a few years to develop the firm and triple its size in terms of network and human resources, creating a leading kitchen furniture brand in Greece. He considers Soft Skills as his associates’ most cherished qualifications: empathy, awareness, positive energy, hard work, teamwork, and cooperation - always seeking to be useful and constructive for society, the environment and fellow human beings.

The firm has a number of warehouses throughout Greece to allow prompt service to clients, saving them extra costs. In addition, the company operates stores in the Athens suburbs of Chalandri and Voula.
its customers. The special conditions as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, allowed the firm to put in full use the digital services that it already had, and was in a position to suggest to clients an online and safe approach to designing the kitchen of their dreams! The online design application significantly reduced the purchase decision time, enhancing the firm’s flexibility, especially in cities such as Athens. At the same time, clients in more remote locations were given the option to design and buy their kitchen furniture from the comfort of their home. In addition, online services meant a welcome cut in travelling costs. The online design option was available even before the Covid-19 lockdown period, but its daily and more intensive use gave birth to new ideas on enhancing the quality and speed of communication that we will see in the future.
Corporate social responsibility Gruppo Cucine’s environmental sensitivity is proven by the fact that all the factories it represents use fully recyclable, certified, environmentally-friendly and humansafe materials, in addition to being 100% solar-powered. All products are certified and approved for indoor use according to the strictest international standards, as the same products are also exported to more than 80 countries worldwide, with even stricter standards than Greece. As part of its corporate social responsibility, Gruppo Cucine undertakes to plant a tree for each kitchen furniture set sold. Thus, the energy consumed to create the furniture returns to nature, where it belongs.
Customer-tailored solutions In kitchen design, overlooking the special needs of either the main user or any other family member is regarded a common mistake. Gruppo Cucine places emphasis on examining individualized needs per case, in order to provide solutions that cover the ergonomic needs of multiple users of the same kitchen. Focusing on a humancentered design, the firm suggests optimum solutions for all types of consumers, including groups of fellow citizens with special abilities and skills.
