Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a growing health crisis. In Europe alone, over 100 million people live with the disease and by 2040 it is expected to become the 5th leading cause of death worldwide.

In Cyprus, the reality is even more alarming. In 2022, Cyprus recorded the highest adjusted incidence rate of new kidney failure cases in Europe, with 376 new cases per 1 million population compared to the European average of 158.

The Cyprus Nephrology Society reported a staggering 115% increase in patients undergoing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. For these patients, dialysis is not just a treatment but a lifelong routine. They spend around 4 hours, 3 times a week, connected to a dialysis machine, planning their daily schedule around treatments which, although challenging, give them the strength and energy needed to care for their loved ones, work, socialise and enjoy meaningful moments.

The Association of Friends of Kidney Diseases, through its voluntary work, stands beside these patients and their families by offering essential support, financial assistance, and public awareness initiatives. Supporting their mission is not a decision we reconsider but is a commitment we proudly renew every year through our annual donation of €1,000.

🤝 Inside Marathon | May 2026

At Marathon Distributors, our people are at the heart of everything we do. This month, our HR Manager shares her experience, the values that inspire her, and what makes being part of the Marathon team so rewarding:

“I joined Marathon Distributors nine months ago as HR Manager, working closely with employees across the organization and supporting both their professional journey and the company's growth.

What I enjoy most is the daily interaction with people and the opportunity to support employees in meaningful ways. Every day brings different challenges and experiences, which keeps the role interesting and motivating.

Building strong relationships and creating a positive environment where people feel valued has been one of the most fulfilling parts of my journey. It has also been rewarding to work in an environment where teamwork, trust, and collaboration continue to grow.

Our culture is collaborative, supportive, and people-focused, and I truly believe that someone is lucky to be part of such a positive and people-oriented workplace.”

- Margarita Ktoridou | HR Manager

Making a difference doesn’t always require grand gestures — sometimes, it starts with simply rolling up your sleeve 🩸

Our blood donation event on April 30th was a powerful reminder that this simple act of kindness can help transform and save lives.

A big thank you to everyone who participated. Special appreciation goes to Aphrodite, who not only leads by example as a regular donor but also plays a vital role in organizing this initiative. From planning to coordination, her dedication ensures these events run smoothly and successfully ❤️.

📍2026 European Cybersecurity Certification Conference

We are proud to have been represented by our IT Manager, Lefteris Krasias, at the 2026 European Cybersecurity Certification Conference in Ayia Napa.

The conference offered valuable insight into the evolution of EU cybersecurity certification frameworks, including CSA2 and ECCF, and their growing role in strengthening trust and compliance.

Discussions highlighted the need to scale certification capacity and tackle accreditation challenges as demand for certified solutions grows. Emerging topics, such as the European Digital Identity Wallet and certification for Managed Security Services, are shaping the next phase of Europe’s cyber resilience strategy.

A great opportunity to connect with policymakers, industry leaders, and experts driving the future of Europe’s cyber resilience.
