Chronology
A two-storey store in the heart of the center of Heraklion, in Meidani, hides aromas, flavors and the most diverse combination of products. The ground floor is equipped with all kinds of herbs and spices while the first floor has everything for the sport of hunting.
Our store carries history and years of experience as it has been operating since 1924. At that time, for the data of Heraklion, the traditional Pervolarakis store operated as a modern department store as it had a huge variety of products and covered almost all the needs of the people of the time.
Today, maintaining almost the same composition, the store has the same philosophy, always aiming at the satisfaction of its customers.
A FEW WORDS ABOUT OUR HISTORY
The business was started in 1924 by Aristides Pervolarakis, grandfather of the current manager Georgios Pervolarakis with spices, herbs, teas, clothes dyes and a variety of products. In 1936 his son, Spyros Pervolarakis, took over the business. During that period the company is enriched with hunting items and is the first company of its kind in Crete.
In 1963 after the death of Spyros Pervolarakis, the business will be taken over by his wife, Fotini and together with her three sons, Aristides, George and Stelios they will expand it with their personal hobbies and will give her the identity that remains almost unchanged until and today. Thus, products for hunting, fishing, camping were added to the shelves of the store and were inextricably linked with the name Pervolarakis.
