The colossus won an award in the "Agricultural Product" category. The event was attended by the Mayor of Sotira, who received the award, as well as the President of the Culture Committee of the Municipality, Florence Savva and representatives of the colossal producers.
In his speech, the Mayor of Sotira, Mr. George Takkas, stated that the importance of the colossus as an agricultural product for the Savior is enormous, as it is the main source of income for the residents of the Municipality, while in recent years with successful promotion events, such as The Kolokassi Festival and the Kolokassi Tasting Night, the promotion of the Kolokassi has achieved significant success.
The awards are expected to highlight the Cypriot producer and elevate his relationship of trust with the consumer. The people of toil and creation who produce fine Cypriot products, of high quality and taste.
