History
Our company was founded in 1978 by Thalis K. Candilidis under the name M. Candilidis & Co. Our main objective was plant protection products and fertilizers. Later on, the Vegetable Seeds and the Veterinary Department was created.
The founder of our company, was present in the field of agrochemicals, pharmaceutical and veterinary medicines since 1947 and was one of the pioneers and founders of Lapafarm SA (a company that over the years had the exclusive distribution of several multinational companies, such as American Cyanamid, Wyeth, Gildead, etc.)
His experience and his creativity were the basis upon which the younger members of his family relied on to build their own business future. The third generation of the family has been actively involved in the company for more than 10 years now, thus continuing the development of the company, but also having as an ally the 60 years of experience.
Today our company has been renamed from AGROSEED CANDILIDIS SA to CANDILIDIS SA and focuses exclusively on veterinary medicines, being at the moment, the only Greek company with vaccines for small animals. At the same time, the series of veterinary medicines for small and productive animals cover many of the constantly changing needs of the Greek veterinarian, the breeder and the owners of small animals.
