Building a Guideline
Starting in early 90’s, our experience of the prosperous banana venture at the Aegion port, and subsequently at Nea Peramos port, gave us the opportunity to flourish and build this unique business segment from scratch. We undertook a crucial part of the banana supply chain, customizing and assembling every discrete ring in order to take care of this delicate fruit. Assembling rings as the shipping agency, customs clearance, discharging, quality control, warehousing, traceability and monitored forwarding.
We invested in the intensive training of our stevedores and middle-class executives with the view to specialization. Encouraged organic recruitment, consequently new members learned the game rules and embraced our collaborative culture. We created manuals and procedures for every single aspect of the business process, forming vertically integrated services, controlled fiscally from our headquarters. The infrastructure is fully equipped with banana-specialized cold stores and machinery.
