The main product of the Zagora Pelion Agricultural Cooperative is the famous Zagora Pelion Apples, which are produced in accordance with EU regulations as a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO Zagora Pelion Apples). The PDO apples make up to 93% of the total production of the Cooperative.
The PDO apples of Zagora Pelion stand out for their excellent quality, their special sweet taste, their crisp texture, their special aroma and their deep red color.
In addition, the unique microclimate of the specific area, at an altitude of 300 to 700 meters, as well as the use of traditional cultivation techniques under the constant supervision of the farmers of the cooperative, is the key factor for the recognition of the cultivated apples as PDO products.
The Cooperative sells most PDO Apples in Greece and also exports them to Eastern European Markets (Bulgaria, Romania) Cyprus, Egypt and the Middle East.
