Get to know LYSON
History
It all started in the 1950s. Marian Lyson, grandfather of the current owners of the company, worked as a locksmith at the High-Pressure Engine Factory. He devoted all his free time to his passion - beekeeping.
Born innovator, he was constantly looking for ways to improve work in apiary not only for him but for bees as well. He bought a pre-war hand drill and converted it into an electric one. This helped him to create his first molds for the production of polystyrene beehives, which at that time was a completely innovative solution in beekeeping.
It is him
who set the path that Pasieka Lyson is still following today, combining
tradition with modernity.
FROM A
FAMILY-OWNED MANUFACTORY TO
THE LARGEST
BEEKEEPING COMPANY IN POLAND
Marian
Lyson spent years perfecting models of polystyrene hives, and wherever he
presented them, they attracted great interest among beekeepers. However,
although the first polystyrene hive was made in Poland in the 1960s, they were
still not produced on a larger scale.
He decided
to change that.
In 1988,
together with his son Andrzej, he founded Apicol and started producing
polystyrene beehives for the Apipol Regional Beekeepers Association in Cracow.
In 1995,
Marian's grandson, Tomasz, transformed the family business into a company
called ŁYSOŃ.
Today LYSON
GROUP is a whole complex of ventures related to beekeeping. It deals not only with
the production of polystyrene hives, beekeeping equipment, but also with the
processing of natural bee products. Promoting knowledge about bees, healthy
lifestyles and environmental protection, this is the goal for the near future.
Charismatic
and open-minded. From his grandfather he inherited a passion for innovation and
he implements solutions for some impossible to combine. Privately, a lover of
antique cars. He organized rallies with Fiat 126p in support of bees. He
perfectly combines his passions with family life. He also cares about
interpersonal relations within the company and in his dealings with business
partners. He received a special award in the international competition for
Entrepreneur of The Year organized by EY Entrepreneur Of The Year.
LYSON APIARY MORE THAN JUST HONEY
In 2004, we
decided to expand the Lyson group with company, LYSON APIARY. It operates as a
partnership between Tomasz Lyson and his sister, Katarzyna. Here, too, we are
faithful to Marian Lyson vision, so we are constantly developing our
assortment, experimenting and exploring new possibilities.

Katarzyna,

recipes.
