That was the Greece of 2012, the same year Moschos and his brother founded their family olive business. Now, having built up the company, he wants to be part of the future of Europe; making quality produce and doing it with clean energy, saving money and helping the continent’s lofty climate ambitions at the same time.

Agora, depois de construir o empreendimento, ele quer fazer parte do futuro da Europa, fazendo produtos de qualidade, com energia limpa, economizando dinheiro e ajudando nas ambições climáticas do continente.

Tam used ample amounts of fertilizer and pesticides to boost his yields, and global prices determined how well he did.
