A Day in Motion — Dispatch from Athens Facility

At our Athens facility, motion is part of the daily rhythm. Forklifts navigate the yard, lifting, aligning, and loading. Heavy-duty electric motors — carefully packaged, documented, and assigned — move from the production area to outgoing trucks.

Each dispatch is more than a shipment. It’s the closing step of a process that begins with precision manufacturing and ends with reliable installation at its final destination. Behind every unit, there’s a project advancing, a team preparing, a system in motion.

Operations unfold steadily. Hands work in sync. The yard hums with purposeful tempo.

One of those days. A day when coordination, clarity, and momentum come together.

From production to packaging, from Athens to destinations across the region, everything flows forward.

Status in motion.

From June 25 to 27, 2025, UW Group hosted a series of celebratory events in Limassol, Cyprus, commemorating 25 years of continuous success, innovation, and service in the maritime industry.

Representing Valiadis Hellenic Motors S.A. at the event were Fivos Valiadis, Exports Director, and Dimitris Komeni, Business Development Manager. Our participation as a principal and partner in Cyprus—through our collaboration with UMAR | WSR—made this occasion all the more meaningful.

The three-day celebration featured:

• A Welcome Cocktail at Sands Beach Club, attended by shipping authorities, international guests, and public officials.

• A day devoted to community impact, including the donation of an inclusive playground and the unveiling of a commemorative sculpture.

• A final evening gala at THEAMA, honoring the relationships and shared milestones that shaped UW Group’s journey.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the entire UW Group team, and especially to Founder & CEO Mr. Thrasos Tsangarides, for building an organization grounded in values, trust, and family spirit.

Valiadis SA is honored to be part of this journey—and we look forward to many more years of collaboration and shared growth.
