The company
Innovative, specialised, responsible
Since 1988, the company has been continuously growing, constantly evolving its facilities, enriching its know-how and having established itself in the market of seedlings.
A modern Greek family business that focuses on each grower’s needs
Thirty years ago, Michael Mimikos created the first glasshouse in Psachna Evia (80 km north of Athens) and started with a specialization in the production of tomato seedings.
Today, the company's business has expanded, with an area with more than 17,000 square meters and 10.000 square meters glass covered with modern equipment.
We aim for reliable and meaningful partnerships. We rely on consistency, quality and knowledge.
Looking at progress, we are constantly looking for new methods, varieties and techniques that are used to maximize our product improvement.
