The restless nature of the owner, combined with his love for the place where he grew up, leads him to his active involvement in the community, cultural, municipal, business. His broader acquaintance with the needs of the place, on a social and business level, leads him to the thought of creating his first store with leather sandals in Kissamos and with the aim, on the one hand, to acquaint the local community with the sandal manufacturing craft in Gramvousa and, on the other hand, to support and strengthen the local market - entrepreneurship. 

He envisions a branch in the old market of Kissamos, which is currently in recession, which will host the product he knows so well how to manufacture, in order to help "unlock" the local market. 

A vision he shares with his wife Effie, who undertakes to make it a reality. So, in 2014, they choose the space in the centre of the old market, which they decorate inspired by industrial standards, in order to evoke the craftsmanship. Although the space is small, it elegantly accommodates the wide variety of designs of the XX collection and successfully meets the expectations of both local residents and visitors to the area.
