ZAZOPOULOS SA was founded in 1958 by Nikolaos Zazopoulos. A pioneer for his time, Nikolaos envisioned the establishment of a Greek company that would offer modern, high-quality products to the Greek market. Through hard work and sheer determination, he was able to turn his dream into reality.
Today, we progress, grow, and continue to adhere to the beliefs, and vision of our founder, while Zazopoulos family’s second generation leads our team. His generous philosophy and considerate mindset trickled down across the Company, instilling us all with a strong sense of responsibility towards our customers, suppliers and partners. Nikolaos taught us the importance of sincerity, selflessness and correct representation when dealing with our suppliers and the brands we represent, helping us develop a brand personality which does not solely revolve around self-advertising, but instead focuses on the promotion of the brands we have chosen to look after.
With of our partners' support and through the continuous development of our sales and distribution network, ZAZOPOULOS SA has become one of the most reliable import, export and rep companies in Greece, Cyprus and the Balkans.
