Theologou


Theologou was one of the first vehicle manufacturers in Greece. It was created by Nikos Theologou, a Greek mechanic who had lived and worked for a few years in the US, and founded this company after he returned to Athens, Greece. Around 1918 he designed and constructed a light passenger car with a motorcycle engine; only one was built. His company, nonetheless, produced a variety of bus and truck bodies, mostly on Ford chassis in the 1920s. By the mid-1920s it was facing strong competition by larger companies like Tournikiotis and Athena in Athens, Bouhagier in Patras and others, which also produced vehicles on imported chassis, and was soon eclipsed by them.
