In 1965, Charalampos Tsaousoglou bought the Xenia Hotel in Corfu and builds the Corfu Hilton Hotel in its place, due to its unique location and wonderful view. In 1965 a small group of visionary Greek shareholders Mr Ch. Tsaousoglou, Mr. G. Fokas, Mr A. Retsos and Mr T. Sviriades gave life to the first hotel of the Electra hotel chain, the now classic Electra at Ermou Street in the center of Athens right next to Syntagma Square, followed by Electra Palace at Aristotelous square, in Thessaloniki.

In 1967 Charalampos Tsaousoglou buys a large area in the Ropa Valley. The well-known architect Nikos Hatzimichalis undertakes the design of the Club House and Donald Harradine, the Swiss golf course architect, undertakes the construction of the golf course. Construction begins and by 1971 Corfu Golf Club is ready to begin operations.

In the 1970s, alongside the rise of the Greek economy, the production of EBME intensified. The company, with a workforce of 600 people, sets trends in design for the Greek market and starts exporting to many countries abroad. At the same time EBME begins to import products of leading European brands to complement its production. So far, Tsaousoglou’s businesses employ a total of almost 2,000 workers.

In 1972, the main building and bungalows of the iconic Corfu Hilton hotel were designed by the famous architect N. Hatzimichalis. The sculpture at the entrance is inspired by the famous Greek painter Yiannis Moralis, one of the most important Greek visual artists of the “Generation of the ’30” movement.

Corfu Hilton becomes Corfu Holiday Palace. The Corfu Holiday Palace, which retains its original architecture and features, consists of luxurious rooms, bungalows with private pools, and suites with stunning views of Pontikonissi and the Ionian Sea.

Konstantinos Tsaousoglou , son of Charalampos Tsaousoglou , takes over the management of the historic 5* Corfu Holiday Palace hotel.
