Our family's tradition in the field of beekeeping begins around 1957, in Stemnitsa, Arkadia. Our place of origin and its beginning of beekeeping activity, in the rich bee pastures that possesses, initially out of curiosity about their wonderful society and then professionally. This care and devotion was passed down from our father to me and my brother from an early age and thus the experience became love and passion that develops into hard but also quality work.

The year 2007 is a milestone for us, with our transition to organic beekeeping. Now certified by the DIO organization, we produce all our products with natural-biological methods such as honey, pollen, royal jelly, propolis, wax and all natural and necessary products of bees for humans. The transport of bees in various regions throughout Greece, allows us to collect the honey from different honeys and flowers creating authentic flavors and also a natural pharmacy that protects the human body. The vision of the company is oriented towards a pure-biological beekeeping which starts from the name of the company and the love of its members for them bees. "Axion Esti", is the phrase that could be better rendered our philosophy and our beliefs about its most intelligent and beneficial insect planet, the bee. The bee generously gives us all its products, honey, pollen, royal jelly, propolis, wax that are beneficial for our good health but also the life-giving power of pollination.
