Since first beginning our operations in Piraeus in 1933, SGS has been a cornerstone of quality and integrity for testing, inspection and certification.
To honor this significant milestone, on October 25, 2023, we hosted a celebratory event in Glyfada, Greece. Welcoming over 200 local and international guests to join us for the evening, as we celebrated with dinner, drinks, music, and speeches by our local Managing Director, George Anastopoulos.
This 90th-anniversary celebration is a testament to our longstanding commitment to Greece. We are grateful for all our guests who took the time out of their busy schedules to celebrate with us.
Ioannis Kastanis, SGS Business Manager Natural Resources - Oil, Gas and Chemical Commodities, said: "For 90 years, SGS's activity has been interwoven with the historical development of the Greek economy in the sectors of petroleum and chemical products, mining and metallurgical products, agricultural products, and environmental and industrial controls.
"Due to the highly demanding nature of our operations, precision training always goes hand in hand with adherence to safety regulations. We combine continuous education with the effort to become better every day, while, drawing knowledge from top scientific research, we ensure that we are truly experts."
