About Us

Green Forest was established in 1993 and in 20 years it became a truly diverse and environmentally conscious organization. From its humble beginnings of vegetable plant production in a small greenhouse, Green Forest has evolved into the biggest and most awarded landscaping company in Cyprus as well as one of the biggest producers and suppliers of native and imported plants.
In 2009 our company’s pursuit for excellence was recognized by the Cyprus Employers and Industrialists Federation, which, in collaboration with the Ministry of Commerce Industry and Tourism and the Institute for the Promotion of Research and Innovation, awarded Green Forest with The Innovation Award for the Primary Sector for the establishment and operation of a multifaceted model nursery, which combines the cultivation of a huge variety of plants, trading, garden landscaping and maintenance services. In 2012, European Business Awards, an independent awards program designed to recognize and promote excellence, best practice and innovation in the European business community, awarded Green Forest with the European Business Award; the most prestigious award any European company can be awarded with.

During its first years, the company focused on expanding its greenhouses and increasing productivity with the use of the latest technology in plant producing. A variety of plants such as poinsettias, chrysanthemums, fuchsia, flowering and herbal plants, gerbera, begonia and indoor plants were being added gradually. As a professional horticulturist with extensive academic qualifications, the founder and the managing director of the company, Tryfon Tryfonos has been striving to develop the right climatic conditions and use of appropriate soil mixes in order to produce healthy plants that would be planted successfully. Today, Green Forest is able to deliver high quality plants, gardening materials and landscaping services to a wide range of clients, local businesses and authorities, as well as to professional and novice gardeners. In 1995 our company diversified its operations and offered complete packages of full landscaping solutions. With its highly trained teams of agriculturists, irrigation system engineers and designers, Green Forest soon became Cyprus’ leading landscaping company with 118 personnel, 12 construction crews and 27 maintenance crews serving private villas, luxury hotels and resorts as well as public green areas and parks.
