Alexandros Nikolaou “Alekos” Goulandris

In memoriam

Shipowner In 1957 Alexandros' father, Nikolaos Goulandris, passed away leaving his business to his sons Yannis, twins Alexandros and Leonidas and daughter Anna. Alexandros Goulandris was the last surviving sibling to continue the family story along with his heirs and next generation. The successful businessman did not get through life without his own share of difficulties. Alexandros lost one of his three daughters Violanto and despite this he lived his life passing down his own values and principles that he grew up with to his other two daughters, Maria-Lula and Alexandra. In 1994, Alexandros and Marietta restored the Tourlitis Lighthouse in Andros in memory of their daughter Violanto; it has been operating ever since.
