Vakxikon Publications was launched into operation in 2012, as an offshoot of the eponymous literary magazine Vakxikon.gr (2008). The company was founded and directed by Nestoras Poulakos (management) and Stratos Prousalis (creative design).
Vakxikon Publications holds a leading position in the Greek & Cypriot Market, both for its publishing activity and for its overall work in the fields of cultural news. It annually releases and distributes more than 100 books of Greek and foreign literature, essays and children's books, which have been nominated and awarded national prizes in Greece and Cyprus.
It participates with its own stands in the annual Book Fairs of Athens and Thessaloniki, as well as in the professional meetings of the most important international book fairs.
According to the latest state survey (2022), Vakxikon Publications is included among the 30 largest publishing houses in Greece (the first for the production of poetry, the third in the publication of literature).
