Our company Iov Malakasis which produces salami and sausages from Lefkada, was established during the postwar period. Its initiator and founder, Iov Malakasis, son of Thomas Malakasis, started producing salami Lefkados for the first time around 1945. In 1952 he opened his own store, where he produced small quantities of salami and sausages, which he afterwards sold to his father’s grocery store. In 1965 along with his brothers he founded the first company Iov Malakasis and Bros and in 1973 constructed the production unit of Zampelion 34 Street, in the eastern coast of Lefkada where the company is located until today.

Since then and up to now, the company has established a coherent network of suppliers and customers and has made salami Lefkados known all over Greece, always using the prewar traditional recipe, which was used by its founder during the first years of the enterprise.

Today the company run by the son of Iov, Thomas Malakasis, is in the process of constructing new modern facilities where it will be transferred within 2013.
