Our founder, Christakis Agathangelou returned to Cyprus from Italy where he was working as a service installation engineer at FRAU.
In January 1976 following civil unrest and military occupation, Christakis, lost his factory in Mia Milia. Not one to give up, he persisted in his vision and decided to start all over again by registering a new company “Christakis Agathangelou Ltd.”, specializing in the manufacture of industrial stainless-steel tanks and food processing machinery.
This was the first stainless steel equipment manufacturing company on the island. As a true entrepreneur, Christakis was determined to design and develop innovative solutions, which were completely unique for that time.
After a successful decade of continuous growth, the new generation joined the team. Angelos Agathangelou, the eldest son of the founder, joined the company after having completed his mechanical engineering studies. Whilst Angelos provides technical and managerial expertise to the company, he has also supported product diversification, company expansion as well as internationalization of the company products and offerings.
Angelos took over management of the company in 1997. Together with Michalis Michael and Marios Christou who joined the team as mechanical engineers in the late 90s, they envisioned the transformation of “Christakis Agathangelou Ltd.” into a pioneering company that serves clients globally. Their goal was to become the leading supplier for the now rapidly growing, food-processing industry.
From a small family business, Agathangelou evolved into a partnership with unlimited potential highlighting this important milestone year for the development of the company. Michalis Michael and Marios Christou purchased shares in the company and the additional funds were re-invested into the company for its international expansion.
The company began participation in international exhibitions.
