OUR STORY2007 Ergon was an idea: A selection of traditional Greek products.

2008 Our first product launched! A honey called “Melissas ERGON”. In 6 months we cre-ated, 20 products under 3 sub brands: Elias / Melissas / Gis ERGON and we were very happy

2009 - 2010 On September 2009 two more products were added to the Ghis Ergon series, the Wild Porcini mushrooms and the Wild Truffle from Pindos Mountains, described as products of the year by the Greek newspaper “TO VIMA” and the magazine TROFIMA kai POTA (FOOD and BEVERAGES).On January 2010 the new category with sea spreads was launched as well as the famous Tuna from Alonissos, under the name Thalassas (sea’s) Ergon. At the same time the ERGON products were placed at the Duty Free Shops and the cracked wheat Sitou ERGON was awarded a prize at the gourmet prizes of newspaper “Eleftherotypia”.

So after 70 products, 300 customers, few exports and many prizes and we were very happy, exhausted but nobody was aware of our brand....

RETROSPECTIVE KEY POINTSIN ERGON’S BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Risk Ignorance!

Hands on operations. And I mean all the operations! We really love our kid, we want to be with it all day!

Lack of “plan b”. We had to succeed, otherwise what?

Flexible business models / Strict business strategies

Share of our ideas with some investors (we didn’t know that they were!)

After all it is business! You need profit!
