THE COMPANY
Forty years in grapes, one packing house in Myrtofyto.
Mintzilis Fruit Export Company is a family business. It has been packing and exporting table grapes from Myrtofyto, Kavala, Greece, since 2010, for retail chains across Europe.
OUR STORY
From our own vineyards to the shelves of Europe.
Ioannis Mintzilis has worked with table grapes for 40 years. He farms his own vineyards and, before 2010, was a partner in another packing house and in an olive mill. Grapes were always the constant in his work.
In 2010 he founded his own business in Myrtofyto, Kavala, his second in grape packing, and built the facilities in use today.
Today the packing house takes in grapes from its own vineyards and from growers in the area. It sorts them, packs them in the format each customer asks for and loads them for 18 countries besides Greece.
