CANDIA: Welcome the first flagship Hästens store in Athens

The famous Swedish brand of handmade luxury mattresses brought to Greece by AFOI VELIVASAKIS ABEE – CANDIA

HASTENS, the famous Swedish luxury bed company and AFOI VELIVASAKIS ABEE, known for its CANDIA sleep products, have formalized their partnership with the opening of the first Hästens flagship store in Athens.

“Hästens chose CANDIA to promote its products and provide excellent customer service in Greece and also in Cyprus.”

Hästens founded in Sweden in 1852, is the sixth-generation family company that makes the most luxurius beds and mattresses all over the world. The main company’s mission is to change the way people think about sleep and makes beds which totally improve their sleep and ensure a better quality of life. All products are completely handcrafted from ethically sourced natural materials with the highest level of attention and persistence to detail. Excellent natural materials such as cotton, wool and slow-growing pine are used. Hästens beds are incredible comfortable and it’s the first choice by many celebrities, athletes, and upper-class people as an ultimate modern wellness investment.

The two companies have common background. The expertise behind craftmanship, the know-how for handmade mattresses and the love for natural materials, which CANDIA has been using in the BODYFIX collection, was the first contact point. Both focusing on customer service, understanding their real needs, and constantly working to reach them. The shared values adopted by the two families and thus the two brands: authenticity, respect, craftsmanship, well-being – and above all the most important: sustainability. These details led Hästens – with its history of almost 2 centuries – to trust CANDIA and the Velivasakis family to manage the most luxurious bed and mattress brand in the world, for Greece and Cyprus.

“We are very happy that the discerning customers in Greece and visitors from all over the world who are exclusively looking for the Hästens wellness can now enjoy it at the new store on the Athenian Riviera.” We are truly optimistic about our brands’ partnership”, said ο Domenico Capobianco, Hästens Regional Manager South Europe.

“CANDIA continues to invest in innovation, in new products and materials, in the development of a network of stores in Greece and abroad. Creating awareness around the brands of CANDIA, Bodyfix and VIOSTROM is of focus. The valuable addition of Hästens, offers us the most detailed range of products related to this basic natural function of the human body, sleep. A success that coincides with the celebration of our 50 years of successful work in Greece”, said the CEO of the company, Michalis X. Velivasakis.
