Christos Papadimitriou represents the third generation of the Kalamata Papadimitriou family business, which was founded in 1939 by his grandfather.

He was born in Kalamata and studied Organization & Business Administration at the University of Piraeus, while he started working in the company in 2004. He contributed catalytically to the modernization and restructuring of the company and its production process, which until the beginning of 2000 was mainly exporting corinthian currents. Christos, continuing the vision of his father Kostas, who had already started the production of balsamic vinegar in 1998, took over sales and marketing and began to enrich the company's portfolio with new and innovative product lines, such as balsamic creams and Mediterranean mustards.

Christos is currently the CEO of the company and under his guidance Kalamata Papadimitriou has achieved a leading position in the balsamic creams category in Greece, having a simultaneous presence in more than 32 countries worldwide.
