The Agricultural Co-op of Neapoli-Agrinio is a modern enterprise that is at the forefront of the sector of processing and standardization of white and green asparagus and kiwi fruit.

• Brief history

In 1998, 24 engaged individuals established an association of asparagus producers, with a shared vision and concerns about their crops, which led to the establishment of the AGRICULTURAL CO-OP.

Today, the co-op has 70 members who cultivate mostly asparagus and kiwi fruit.

Our objective

Being a cooperative organization, the main objective of the Agricultural Co-op of Neapoli-Agrinio is not only to commercially exploit the produce grown by its members, but also to preserve the high quality of their products.

For this reason:

A. It COLLABORATES with agricultural holdings that implement either organic farming programs or integrated management programs, proper use of plant protection products, and measures for the protection of the environment and sustainable development.

In accordance with the GLOBAL G.A.P. international protocol, the AGRO 2.1-2.2 Greek protocol, and GRASP.

B. It PROCESSES and STANDARDIZES agricultural products (asparagus, kiwi fruit) at its two modern facilities, with state-of-the-art technological equipment and strict safety specifications on matters of health and hygiene.

The Co-op’s packing plants are certified according to the ISO 22000 and IFS standards.

Our people

Our people are the most important resource of our agricultural cooperative. And we don’t just mean those who work “inside” the business, but also all the farmers working outside in the fields, in the countryside.

All the producers of the wider region of the Acheloos River valley, the Municipality of Paracheloitida, and other regions in the Prefecture of Aitoloakarnania.

All those people who diligently and laboriously farm approximately 250 hectares, a number that rises by 30 to 40 hectares each year, proving their commitment to growing their agricultural holdings and remaining in the countryside.

In our Co-op, producers, laborers, executives, everyone contributes in their own way to every stage of the production process. Everyone feels part of a family.
