Our story
In 1965 Mr. Grigoris Svourdakos started the business based in 24 Athinas street in Athens. During these early times customers could find in the store a wide variety of metal hardware, ironwork, decorations accessories, knobs and locks. Although he started as a retail store, it was not long before he supplied other stores with equipment, as the quality of the products was unbeatable and its prices were highly competitive. The basic principles of Mr. Grigoris Svourdakos were concistency, honesty, the quality of services provided and the careful selection of the products that entered the store.
He was the first in Athenas street to introduce the English sliding machines, the German roller shutters and the French textured machines as well as products of Black & Decker (power tools), Galcon (irrigation systems), Texas (agricultural products) and Alarm (tools). It was a store known not only to plumbers, gardeners and other professionals, but also to individuals who would always find what they were looking for. For thirty-nine years he was in charge of the company making the store known throughout Athens for its quality and reliability.
In 2004, George, Antonis and Meletis Svourdakos, his three sons, took over the management of the store, renaming the company to SVOURDAKOU BROS. Within a short time, they reshaped the style and content of the store, impoving its position in the Athenian market. The store was transformed into a hub that used to serve hundreds of customers daily, focusing on plumbing and hardware, irrigation and watering systems, garden tools, water filters and thousands of other garden, field and home products. The determination and the desire for continuous improvement made the store even more famous.
In 2012 the company was renamed to ALLWATER and at the same time www.allwater.gr was created in order to cover the consumer's needs all over the country. At once, the company's staff was expanded since new departments(call center, technical support and service, digital marketing) were created. The upward slope of the company continues with participation in European exhibitions, imports of products of companies such as Fiore, Remer, and RR Italia as well as hydraulic components from Europe, strong presence in the wholesale market and successful collaborations with legal entities under public and private law. For less than a decade we produce, in a cooperating factory, water timers and watering accessories with the brand name: Aqualine and products for the field and the garden with the brand name: Ipierre.
10 years after the establishment of ALLWATER we develop our new electronic shop with a much more friendly interface, an integrated B2B platform, useful articles and buying guides.
As long as there is water we'll be here…
