Profile

A vital link between local farmers and broader markets

Fruttera Kiziridis is an agricultural company in Greece’s Giannitsa region specializing in fruit handling and distribution.

The company processes over 1000 tons of diverse fruits each season, including peaches, kiwis and apricots, supporting the regional agricultural economy while delivering quality produce across Greece.

Quality assurance is central to the company’s operation, from cultivation and harvesting through standardization, packaging, distribution and preservation.

The Challenge

Expanding fruit storage capacity without compromising quality

Fruttera faced a significant operational challenge in 2013 when increasing market demand from local farmers required the construction of new fruit collection and storage facilities.

With more than 1000 tons of seasonal fruits, the existing infrastructure could no longer support the company’s growing operation.
