Trade relations the focus of meeting between Greek and Australian business leaders

·

A recent meeting between the Thessaloniki Chamber of Commerce and Industry (EBETH) and Elena Limnios, President of the Hellenic Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry National Federation (HACCI NF), aimed at boosting trade and business ties between Greece and Australia.

The EBETH delegation included First Vice President Konstantinos Moraitidis, General Secretary Panagiotis Menexopoulos, Financial Supervisor Themistoklis Sarassidis, Business Support Officer Maria Tsakiri, and Board Member Konstantina Kyrgidou.

The discussions highlighted Australia’s potential for imported Greek products, particularly in food, beverages, and construction materials, sectors where Thessaloniki and Northern Greece have strong export-oriented businesses. However, the lack of a direct flight from Thessaloniki remains a challenge for fostering closer trade links.

The Greek Australian community’s solid reputation in Australia and its efforts to drive collaboration between the two countries were also emphasised.

In a move to further strengthen relations, the three largest Greek Chambers (EBETH, EBEA, and Piraeus Chamber) along with SEVE have signed a memorandum with HACCI NF to establish a regular communication channel.
