-Greetings, in the aftermath of the recent budget debate and its approval, I am jotting down some thoughts and observations. So, first of all, everyone is wondering why bankers had to wait for the government to legislate in order to cut fees that cost no more than 35 million euros per bank when their profits range from 800 million to 1 billion euros each.

Japan Tobacco International (JTI) is participating in the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises' (SEV) "Skills4Jobs for Electrical Automation Engineers" program.

This is the first time the program is being held in Thrace, hosted at SEKAP's factory in Xanthi.

A few years have passed since the former Cooperative Greek Tobacco Industry, also known as SEKAP, was “sinking” under the weight of huge accumulated debts, following the fate of its main shareholder, ATE Bank, while the revelation of the smuggling case had preceded it, when the discovery of a ship in Edipsos with cigarettes of the company served as the end of the thread.

The event was organized by JTI Hellas (Japan Tobacco International), in collaboration with the Embassy of Japan in Greece

For the fourth consecutive year, Japan Tobacco International is supporting the InvestGR Forum as a strategic sponsor, and will participate in the 6th InvestGR Forum 2023, "Greece, Staying the Course," on October 3 and 4, at the Athens Conservatoire.

The chairman of Japan Tobacco Inc (JT), Mutsuo Iwai, praised the leadership of the Greek government for promoting an investment-friendly environment during a recent visit to Tokyo by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, a JT announcement said on Wednesday.

The InvestGR Forum on Monday announced the start of its three-year strategic partnership with Japan Tobacco International (JTI) with this year's event, titled "Greece in the Pole Position," which due to the coronavirus pandemic will be online. 

SEKAP announced on Thursday that production of the products of new owner Japan Tobacco International (JTI) has started, just two-and-a-half months after the Greek tobacco company's takeover.

JTI has upgraded the SEKAP factory at Xanthi in Thrace, which has begun producing Camel and Winston Giga buckets destined for daily export to European Union member-states.

The operation of Greek tobacco company SEKAP will continue following the definitive agreement for the acquisition of parent company Donskoy Tabak by Japan Tobacco International (JTI).
