Company: Lymperis Estate Ike
Lymperis family, in Askri, Boeotia, was active in oil production, by owning and operating an olive mill as well as having an intense commercial activity. As a fourth generation of this family, we are interested in engaging with this sector following the modern standards of production. After an intense market research, we observed that there is a rapid technological progress in olive-making machinery that aims to preserve all the natural elements of the olive fruit. Therefore, the quality of the final product is upgraded. Our goal was to create a modern olive oil mill that will have as a starting point the olive fruit and the end result will be a sealed standard bottle with all the certifications required to be sold in the top foreign markets. Therefore, in addition to the state-of-the-art oil mill that is housed in a 1300sqm building, there will be a storing area with nitrogen tanks for the preservation of olive oil. Bottling will be done also in this building so the quality of olive oil will be undeniable
