About
Sklavenitis is one of Greece's most trusted supermarket chains, and this branch near the village of Achlia offers visitors a convenient and well-stocked stop as they explore the quieter inland and coastal reaches of central Lesvos. Whether you are stocking up a rental villa, provisioning for a beach day, or simply in need of fresh produce, cold drinks, and local pantry staples, Sklavenitis delivers the reliability and range that travelers appreciate when venturing beyond the main resort areas.
The store carries a solid selection of Greek everyday essentials alongside local products that make for excellent edible souvenirs — look for Lesbian olive oil, ouzo, olives, and regional cheeses that reflect the island's rich agricultural traditions. Staff are accustomed to serving both locals and visitors, and the familiar supermarket format makes navigation straightforward even for those without Greek language skills.
For anyone exploring the villages and landscapes of this part of Lesvos, this Sklavenitis location serves as a practical anchor point. Achlia sits in a stretch of the island that rewards slow, unhurried travel, and having a dependable place to resupply means you can extend your wandering with confidence. It is the kind of stop that quietly makes a trip easier, freeing you to spend more time on the island's roads and shores rather than hunting for supplies.
Before you go
What to expect
A well-organised, full-range supermarket where you can pick up everything from fresh fruit and cold drinks to locally produced olive oil, Lesvos ouzo, and island cheeses. It's a practical, no-fuss stop — aisles are clearly laid out and the checkout runs smoothly even when it's busy. Locals and tourists shop side by side, making it a slice of everyday island life.
Best time to visit
Open year-round; visit early morning or after 6 pm to avoid the midday rush in summer.
How to get there
The store is on the edge of Mytilini town, roughly a 5-minute drive from the harbour. Follow the main road north from the centre and look for the Sklavenitis signage — parking is available on site.

My card didn't work at this store, so I paid with my friend's card. But four days later, when I returned to my country, I saw that the money had been charged to my card from this very store.

We went to the market because we couldn't find some branded products at Lidl. It is a large market with 2 floors. Of course, the prices are a little higher than Lidl, but it is possible to find branded and higher quality products.
