Univar expands operations in Greece
Opens Athens office
Chemical distributor Univar has grown its presence in Greece with the opening of a new office in Athens. For the past decade, the company has exported products to Greece from its UK and French operations and it is hoped that the new office, which opened last month, will enable Univar to provide its customers with better service and greater support with formulations and product applications.
Markos Roussos, formerly of Tesa Tape, has been appointed managing director of the new office with a remit to further expand business in the region.
“Expansion in the region and recent extensions to the product ranges have meant that a Univar presence on the ground was the logical next step,” commented Nick Powell, regional director Middle East, Africa, Turkey & Greece. “Markos has an excellent track record in the industry and I am confident the pattern of growth in Greece will continue. The added convenience, speed of distribution and local knowledge will provide the ideal platform for Univar’s continued expansion.”
