Πληροφορίες Εταιρείας

Photos Photiades Breweries was officially formed as a company in 1963 after the acquisition of the oldest brewery in Cyprus, the Leon Brewery that was established in 1937. In 1967 the Company was granted the license to produce Carlsberg beer in Cyprus, which made Cyprus the first country to produce Carlsberg outside Denmark.

In the past 50 years, Photos Photiades Breweries has produced Carlsberg beer with great success and has led it to be the leading beer in Cyprus with over 53% market share. More than the market share, Carlsberg has remarkably managed to become a part of modern Cypriot’s culture and everyday life.

Photos Photiades Breweries prides itself on its dedication to quality and in 1997 was granted the Golden Words Award from Carlsberg Copenhagen as the Best International Brewery. In 2000, it also invested in a new modern Brewery which is fully automated and uses the latest technology and brewing techniques.

 

In 2003, to satisfy market needs, the company re-launched the traditional Leon Beer in the Cypriot market using the traditional recipe and aroma of the late 1930s.

Krauzer Brau, been introduced in 2012, is the third beer that the brewery produces.

Carlsberg, Leon and Krauzer Brau Beers, are all malt lagers, each with its own unique character and taste. They are produced solely with the use of natural water, malt, hops and yeast, without the use of any additive or GMO material.
