Tamis, \u201cNick Thyssen: The Story of a Great Innovator to Remember\u201d details the impact of Thyssen\u2019s pioneering contributions to the global food industry. Thyssen, originally from Valimitika, a seaside village in the Achaia region of the Peloponnese, revolutionized the production of natural juices, fresh fruit salads, and soups, moving away from traditional canned and preserved products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this event, we honor the contribution to the Australian economy in general, and the food industry in particular, to a Greek immigrant whose passion for innovation and new ideas has made him a role model and phenomenon of commercialism and new ideas in Australia and internationally,\u201d said Georgios Lianos, president of the AHEPA Australia \u201cKostis Palamas\u201d Cultural Centre.<\/p>\n<p>The book traces Thyssen\u2019s journey from a small village in Greece to his creation of companies like Patra Orange Juice and Original Juice Company, reshaping the Australian juice and food industry. Professor Tamis will introduce the book and its connection to the history of Hellenism in Australia.<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n        var NXFBPixelFunc = function () {\n            document.removeEventListener(\"scroll\", NXFBPixelFunc);\n            setTimeout(function () {\n                !function (f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n                    if (f.fbq) return;\n                    n = f.fbq = function () {\n                        n.callMethod ?\n                            n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments)\n                    };\n                    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n                    n.push = n;\n                    n.loaded = !0;\n                    n.version = '2.0';\n                    n.queue = [];\n                    t = b.createElement(e);\n                    t.async = !0;\n                    t.src = v;\n                    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n                    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s)\n                }(window, document, 'script',\n                    'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n                fbq('init', '109138906120213');\n                fbq('track', 'PageView');\n            }, 0)\n        };\n        document.addEventListener(\"scroll\", NXFBPixelFunc);\n    <\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ekathimerini.com\/politics\/diaspora-politics\/1265381\/new-book-celebrates-legacy-of-greek-australian-innovator-nick-thyssen\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new book chronicling the life and achievements of Greek-Australian entrepreneur Nick Thyssen (originally Nikolaos Theodosiadis) will be presented on April 12 at the Greek Orthodox Community of New South Wales (GOCNSW), The New Herald reports.
