What Ktima Costa Lazaridi does

Ktima Costa Lazaridi SA is a publicly listed Greek wine, spirits, and balsamic vinegar producer headquartered in Adriani, Drama, with a secondary estate (Oenotria Land) in Kapandriti, Attica. Founded in 1979 by Kostas Lazaridis, the company operates two estates spanning approximately 3,000 stremmata (300 hectares) of vineyards — 2,800 stremmata in Drama at Adriani, Kalivrysi, Platania, and the high-altitude Katafyto site at 900m elevation, plus 200 stremmata of organic-certified vineyards in Attica near Marathon Lake. Its portfolio comprises five wine brands (Amethystos, Château Julia, Domaine Costa Lazaridi, Oenotria Land BIO, Oenodea), two spirits families (Idoniko traditional Tsipouro/Ouzo and Methexis premium grape-varietal distillates), and the Botanico balsamic vinegar range. Production is supported by ISO 9001 and ISO 22000 certifications, with integrated management certification on Drama vineyards.

The company generates revenue through a hybrid model: direct-to-consumer sales at both estates (Wine Club membership, on-site retail, paid tastings at €5/adult, €2.50 reduced), domestic wholesale distribution across Greece, export to USA, Brazil, and Switzerland under an EU CAP 2023-2027 co-funded promotion programme, and event-venue hire at the 10,500 sqm Oenotria Land estate — including a wine museum, multiple event halls, a pool terrace for up to 2,000 guests, an amphitheatre, and a chapel. It serves three primary customer segments: wine enthusiasts and tourists (DTC), corporate/MICE clients (B2B events), and international distributors/export markets. Distribution is fragmented across consumer, retail, hospitality, and export channels, with active participation in international wine competitions (Mundus Vini, Decanter, Berliner Wein Trophy) generating brand credibility and a consistent medal cadence of 35-49 awards annually. The firm is listed on the Athens Stock Exchange (ticker KTILA) and reports between 51-100 employees.
