Passion for Authentic Flavours. Commitment to Excellence.
The origins of a passion
I was born in Athens but grew up in Konitsa, a natural environment that taught me to value authenticity. Over time, I specialised in the selection and export of gourmet products, always guided by the pursuit of quality and trust. Every product I choose reflects that passion for what is essential.
Education and early steps
I studied Business Administration and Economics at the British Hellenic College and continued with Economics and Marketing at Aberystwyth University, Wales. My professional career began in Bristol, UK, where I worked in finance and commercial companies. That experience shaped my international profile and strategic vision. In 2003, I moved to Spain, where I discovered my true vocation: connecting cultures through authentic flavours. It was at Bodegas Lar de Barros - INVIOSA that my journey with wine and storytelling products began.
A brand born with purpose
After the winery closed in 2012, I decided to start my own venture, and two years later founded HAC Export Import with the aim of balancing my professional life with motherhood. From Almendralejo, in the heart of Extremadura, I connect artisanal producers with quality-focused importers, combining closeness, flexibility, and an international outlook. I work only with those who share my commitment to quality, authenticity, and tradition.
Discerning selection, sustainability, and trust
Every product I represent has been chosen through a rigorous process based on three pillars: consistent quality, authentic origin, and commitment to sustainability. I work with family businesses that care deeply about their craft and believe in their products. I don’t just export food — I export stories, people, and values. That’s why supporting authentic brands is at the heart of how I work.
Beyond exporting
Bon Ágora, a seal of trust
BonÁgora by Sophia Choursan is more than a brand — it’s a way of living: honest, close, and passionate about authenticity. We export far more than products; we bring stories, tradition, and excellence to the world. Every choice is guided by sustainability, responsibility, and a genuine commitment to quality. Welcome to a space where every product has a true story to tell.
