Our Story

Perivolia Papadima is a family-run business that has been producing the purest, juicy and sweet oranges and tangerines in Western Greece for four decades. Since 2015 we have been certified with the international certificate GLOBALG.A.P and from 2019 as the only Citrus producer in Greece with GLOBALG. A . P . RISK ASSESSMENT ON SOCIAL PRACTICE certification (GRASP).

Our agricultural activity in the citrus fruits section, started in 1980, with the installation of our first garden in the Evinochori area of Aitoloakarnania. Today, our enclosures reach 340 acres, with about 15,000 trees and production exceeding 1,000 tonnes, with a forecast of 1,500 tonnes over the next three years.

The Evinochori area is one of the ideal places to grow citrus fruits due to the particular microclimate presented in the area and its geographical location strategy.

The fertile plains, mild climate (perhaps the only no frost at all citrus region in Greece) and water quality maximize the productivity of the citrus fruit and improve the quality of the fruit, resulting in unique citrus crops.
