Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is championing a new economic vision for Western Macedonia, focusing on productive investments to drive growth after the region's reliance on the lignite industry. During a visit to Florina, Mitsotakis underscored the importance of innovation, processing, and export-oriented businesses in creating sustainable, well-paid jobs.

The Prime Minister toured three key enterprises that exemplify this developmental shift. He visited Tottis Foods International, a food processing company; the municipal enterprise 'Xino Nero,' known for its natural mineral water; and 'Greca,' a dairy company. These businesses are actively expanding their operations, increasing their international market presence, and contributing to local employment.

Mitsotakis highlighted these companies as models for the region's future, demonstrating how strategic investments can foster economic diversification. The focus is on moving beyond traditional industries towards sectors that offer higher value and more secure employment opportunities for the local workforce, particularly as the region transitions away from coal mining.
