KEOSOE, the national cooperative organisation representing Greek wine and spirits producers, reported that Greek wine exports grew by 12 percent in 2025, marking progress in both value and international recognition despite relatively modest overall production volumes. Officials speaking at the organisation's 75th anniversary event highlighted how collective structures help small producers gain negotiating power and access new markets, a message with direct relevance for Kavala-area wineries operating on a small, family scale. Local wine tourism advocates say the export growth strengthens the case for further investment in the region's wine identity, building on its ancient winemaking history.
