1870

Lesvos, 1870. The olive-green island in the North Aegean inspires the visionary entrepreneur of that era, Dimitris Papoutsanis, for the construction of the first steam-engine olive oil and soap factory in the region. With pure vegetable oils as exquisite raw materials, it begins to produce olive oil green soap and paves the way for the establishment of a legendary company that continues its successful course to date, almost 150 years later.
