Featured Strong Greek presence at the 2019 Hermes Expo International

Look for a strong Greek presence at the 2019 Hermes Expo International. Thanks to an improving Greek economy, businesses absent in recent years are returning in full force to court the US market.

“This year, we are happy to announce the participation of over 16 businesses from Greece looking for opportunities in America,” says Expo founder Paul Kotrotsios. The Expo theme, “Trade, Tourism and Investment Opportunities Through Gastronomy” honors the 15 businesses that will be exhibiting from Greece, in addition to American and Greek-American businesses exhibiting.

The ever-expanding Expo has now found a home in Washington, D.C., joining Philadelphia and New York as trade route destinations. The 28th Hermes Expo International begins Monday, April 8, at the Capital Hilton Hotel in Washington, moves to Center City Philadelphia on Wednesday, April 10, at the Arts Ballroom and brings its grand finale, “A Taste of Hellas” to the 3 West Club in New York on Thursday, April 11. More than 50 exhibitors will have booths at each of the three locations.

Exhibitors will show an array of Greek products and services, including foods, coffees and wines, vacation experiences and even home improvement products. Specific Greek businesses participating this year are Prefecture of Thessalia, Adventurous Destinations, Kedap SA, Meteora Food, Mikel C.C., Chamber of Commerce of Larisa and Trikala, Vianka (Trikki), Viosal SA, Vavitsas factory, Avramoulis SA, Petranis AVEE Aluminum and Tyrnavos Cooperative Winery & Distillery, among others
