The EY organization in Greece announced the winners of the 2025 Entrepreneur of the Year awards, recognizing notable business leaders for their achievements.
The Entrepreneur of the Year competition for 2025, organized by EY Greece, has revealed three winners in various categories following a careful evaluation process by an independent jury. Andreas Dimitriou, the president of PINDOS, received the Business Resilience Award, while Thomas Douzis, the CEO of ERGON FOODS, was honored as the Internationally Developing Entrepreneur, and Evangelos Gerovasileiou, the CEO of KTIMMA GEROVASILIOU S.A., was acknowledged as the Pioneer Entrepreneur. These awards highlight the significant achievements of these entrepreneurs in their respective fields.
PINDOS, under the leadership of Andreas Dimitriou since 2012, has transformed from a traditional agricultural cooperative into a fully integrated, energy-autonomous, and environmentally responsible organization. This evolution showcases a blend of high economic efficiency with a strong commitment to social responsibility, reflecting a trend among contemporary Greek businesses to prioritize sustainability in their operations.
The recognition of these entrepreneurs not only celebrates their personal successes but also underscores the importance of resilience and innovation in Greece's economic landscape. The honors serve as an inspiration for aspiring business leaders and signal the potential for growth and development within various sectors in the country.
