The event for cutting the New Year’s cake of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Piraeus (ECCI) was held with great success on Monday, January 20, in the presence of representatives of the government, the opposition parties, the local government and representatives of professional and scientific organizations of Piraeus.

Upon receiving the honorary distinction, Mr. Xenokostas expressed his thanks with the characteristic phrase: “Long live Olympiacos! Long live Piraeus!”

The event concluded in a climate of optimism for the future of Piraeus, sports and Greek entrepreneurship.
