The history of Prapopoulos Bros S.A. takes us back more than a hundred
years. Its was in 1886 when George & Konstantine Prapopoulos started
manufacturing knapsack sprayers, pins, aluminium kitchen utensils and small
gas cookers. The original company started gradually to grow and in 1923
became an anonymous company (societe anonyme).
We have always kept a close look at the rapid technological advances and
since the early 60's the company has developed new motorized sprayers and
ten years later it introduced plastic knapsack sprayers to complement the
traditional copper knapsack sprayers.
During 1977 a major turnpoint took place. It was the year when the company
relocated itself onto new premises covering 2,500 sq.m. on a 11,000 sq.m.
private site in the outskirts of the city of Patras. In 1986 another step
forward was made by the introduction of information technology into the
managerial operations of the company.
The company is now in the process of automating its production and assembly
lines, is investing in new products and moulds based on a capital investment
project.
An additional source of power is the multilateral export presence of the
company through its local representatives in Poland, Italy, Cyprus & Albania
and also from a stable presence in N. Africa and the Middle East. Parallel
to this, the company participates in leading international trade fairs,
namely Agrotica in Thessaloniki Greece, Eima in Bologna Italy and Polagra in
Poznan Poland.
The development never stops. The company always strives to utilize advanced
manufacturing technologies and to expand its product range. Under our new
Eurospray brand name we are targeting the amateur user by offering low cost
but not low budget sprayers and dusters.
Recent additions to our range of products include the Eurogarden garden
tools & Eurotank Inox tanks. Also, as of autumn 2003 we are providing
equipment for low volume winemaking and personal alcholol distilling and
bottling.
