After two partners withdraw for the project the major shareholders Vasilakis Theogenis and Chatzivourkoglou Georgios continued successfully until 2006 where Mr. Chatzivourkoglou passed away in 2006. Two years later, in 2008 Mr. Vasilakis Theogenis bought the shares from his heirs and is today the sole shareholder of the firm.
