History

In 1964, Christos G. Vakirtzis, an Electrical & Mechanic Engineer graduate, established C. VAKIRTZIS LTD. The company secured the representation of numerous international architectural lighting manufacturing firms. In 1967 Christos Vakirtzis established his own production unit in Koropi, Attica. In its privately owned premises, C.VAKIRTZIS LTD started producing metal ceiling systems and a range of fittings and assembly of semi-finished imported lighting fixtures. In 1974, SMEKA Ltd. was established and in 1996 the two companies were joined under the name of SMEKA S.A.In 1999, Maria C. Vakirtzi, the daughter of Christos G. Vakirtzis, succeeded him as chairman of the Company and moved the SMEKA S.A. showroom in a new private property located at 78. Spyrou Merkouri St. in the center of Athens. SMEKA S.A. has since then grown in size and projects and is now considered one of the most important Architectural lighting supplier firms operating in Greece, recognized and respected among partners and clients.
