NESPAR

Nespar was founded in 1994 by a team of Chrissochori farmers in Municipality of Nestos. At the beginning, the cooperative was consisted of 40 Asparagus producers and the cultivated land was just 762 acres. The main goal of Nespar was the smoother management and the better organised distribution of the fresh Asparagus of the producers.

8 years later, having established a well-known name for Nespar Asparagus in the EU market as well as after many experimental crops took place around the area, the board council decided to expand their horizons by introducing the production of Nespar kiwi fruits. Experiments have shown that the Nestos Valley soil and the climate are ideal for this plantation.

The continuously high demand of the qualitative products of Nespar drove its members in 2011 to bring 2 more products in the market. These of the fresh apricot and plum fruits.

The production in 2013 reached 2.414.683 kg of fresh fruits and vegetables.
