With its patented and award-winning OliVchicken product range as the flagship of its portfolio, Aggelakis S.A. participated for the fourth time in Gulfood 2024, the leading food and beverage trade show in the Middle East, held in Dubai from February 19–23, significantly accelerating its growth trajectory across the Middle East and Asia.
Aggelakis, a fully integrated poultry company with a history of more than 60 years, currently exports its OliVchicken products to over 10 countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Hong Kong. Remaining firmly committed to its strategic growth plan, the company continues to expand its geographical footprint into new markets and strategically important distribution channels, achieving yet another year of doubled exports.
The innovative OliVchicken line, aligned with global consumer trends, has already secured its place at the Greek family table and is increasingly gaining ground in international markets—across both the fine dining and retail sectors. The product line now features new eco-friendly packaging, specifically designed for the international markets.
Through its participation in international trade shows like Gulfood, the Aggelakis team aims to build more direct and effective relationships with companies in the Retail and Food Service sectors, establishing strong partnerships that add value by delivering quality and innovation, with a flexible product portfolio that fully meets the needs of each market.
“Expanding our geographic footprint is key to our future growth” emphasizes Mr. Thanos Aggelakis, CEO of Aggelakis S.A. “But increasing poultry exports requires comprehensive and targeted support. It is therefore essential that the state also plays its part, helping to lift the existing barriers that limit the exportability of Greek poultry to non-EU countries. Through our presence at Gulfood, we succeeded not only in strengthening our position in existing markets but also in opening new pathways to emerging markets in the Middle East and Asia, he added.
