Laconiko celebrated its 15th anniversary and the grand opening of its expanded 15,000 square foot headquarters and new tasting room in Manassas. The joyous event marked a significant milestone for the Pierrakos family and their customers. #Laconiko #FamilyBusiness #OliveOil #Passion #PrinceWilliamCounty @Laconikoevoo Fifteen years ago, Diamantis Pierrakos received a life-changing call from his father, Vasilios, about the future of their family's olive grove in Lakonia, Greece. The choice was stark: sell or continue a four-generation legacy. Together with his brother Dino, Diamantis decided to honor their heritage and transform their family's olive oil into the best brand in the world. Laconiko's award-winning extra virgin olive oil is cherished worldwide, with significant markets in Japan and Korea. Their commitment to quality ensures each bottle is pure and flavorful. In March 2024, the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge disrupted their shipments, but the brothers quickly adapted, rerouting through Norfolk. Their resilience even influenced the expansion of disaster loan applications to include Prince William County businesses. This is a true story of persistence and passion, with Laconiko continuing to thrive and make everyone feel like family!
