DIAZOMA – Placing monuments at the centre of everyday life

The DIAZOMA Association was founded in 2008 with the mission to protect and promote Greece’s ancient theatres, integrate them into modern life and transform them into a vehicle for local and regional sustainable development. For the past 15 years, DIAZOMA has been acting as a catalyst to raise awareness and mobilize citizens and other bodies in restoring and socializing ancient monuments. Inspiring and guiding this noble effort is DIAZOMA President Mr Stavros Benos.

The company was founded out of the need to satisfy the demand for the best quality olive oil around Sitia, which had to be produced and bottled according to strict quality standards. Spearheaded by the Holy Monastery of Toplou and with the participation of 23 olive producers, after numerous meetings and discussions, this became a reality in November 1999.

In the olive groves, the well-known variety “Koroneiki” is cultivated.
