Elikonos Capital invests in Greek vegetable producer A. Vezyrogloou

Elikonos Capital has announced the acquisition of a minority stake in A. Vezyrogloou S.A., a leading Greek producer and processor of baby leafy vegetables and ready-to-eat salads based in Alexandria, Imathia.

Founded in 2006 by Antonis and Ioannis Vezyrogloou, the company continues a family agricultural tradition spanning over a century. It is currently the largest producer of baby leafy vegetables in Greece, with an annual production exceeding 3,000 tons. The company operates a fully integrated model, managing everything from seeding and cultivation to harvesting and final product distribution.

The investment capital will fund the next phase of the company’s multi-year investment program. Key objectives include expanding agricultural production through the development of new greenhouses and adding new production lines to enter high-value categories, such as ready-to-eat salads, washed and cut vegetables, and meal solutions.

A. Vezyrogloou recently completed a €12 million investment in a 7,000 square meter state-of-the-art facility in Schoina, Alexandria, which utilizes advanced gentle processing technology to preserve nutritional value. The company’s products are distributed to major supermarket chains and HoReCa clients, with exports reaching Balkan countries.
