The Almanda company was founded in 1990 in Amarynthos, Evia. Almanda started as a One Person Company  that was active in the sales of goods produced in Evia.

Mr Magoutas, after gaining a lot of experience from his professional activity abroad, founded the Almanda company. The decision was to return to his homeland and dedicate himself to the local business. His vision was to establish himself in the Greek market - with quality nuts and dried fruits, mainly from Evia and, secondarily, from the rest of Greece. His brothers are his allies in this endeavor.

At present, the Almanda company has reached a place among the largest companies in Greece that trade, process, standardize and export nuts and dried fruits worldwide. Having achieved its establishment in Greece and abroad as a reliable supplier of quality nuts and dried fruits, Almanda now sets new goals to gain recognition from the Greek general public, as well as its stable presence in foreign markets.

Almanda has one of the most modern facilities in the nuts industry. The company benefits from cutting-edge mechanical equipment and counts on staff with decades of know-how and experience in the processing of nuts. Thus, it manages to provide a wide variety of final products, suitable for every personal taste and every moment of the day.

Almanda supplies food industries, bakeries, restaurants, hotels, nuts stores, wineries, patisseries, grocery stores, supermarkets, small retail outlets, café-bars etc. Its products are delivered either directly or through its many partners. In addition, it is one of the first Members (Life member) of the International Council on Nuts and Dried Fruits (INC).
