1958
Established in 1958, K.A. ZAZOPOULOS S.A. became one of the first Anonymous Commercial & Industrial Companies registered with the Athens Chamber of Tradesmen. From our headquarters in the bustling heart of Athens, we initially operated as an import company for linens, novelties, and other goods that were difficult to procure due to the unfavorable conditions that prevailed after World War II.
1962
After 1962, we expanded our partner network as well as our product portfolio. In fact, immediately after the completion of international agreements that allowed the opening of trade borders, we were one of the first import companies in Europe to cooperated with Japanese and Chinese brands.
1988
Xenios Zazopoulos joined the team in 1988, while other family members followed gradually.
1989
In 1989, K.A. ZAZOPOULOS S.A. chose to focus on the import and distribution of electric appliances, a positive decision which skyrocketed its already successful trajectory.
1994
Xenios Zazopoulos took over as CEO & Managing Director of K.A. ZAZOPOULOS S.A. with an aim to continue our founder’s work – while always respecting his values and philosophy – in order to strengthen the company and its network, by staying vigilant and ahead of the shifting developments in the commercial landscape.
2007
Aligning our commercial policy with modern trends while also being aware of domestic trade demand, we discovered that there was a lack of quality personal care products in the market. Thus, in 2007, we started working with WAHL, a pioneering and iconic company in the barbering, personal grooming, and pet care fields.
