Macedonian honorary consulate opens in LA

PM Nikola Gruevski attended Saturday the inauguration of Macedonia's honorary consulate in Los Angeles and met with honorary consul Andrew Peykoff, who is a businessman with Macedonian origin.

By appointing him as an honorary consul in Los Angeles, an excellent step has been made because Peykoff will serve a good representative of Macedonia, PM Gruevski said.

Andrew Peykoff has served as the President and CEO of Niagara Bottling since 2002. Andrew has worked with his father, Andrew Peykoff Sr., in the family water business since he was a young boy. Since becoming the President and CEO, Andrew has helped Niagara become the nation's leading private label bottled water supplier. Today, Niagara is the largest family-owned and operated bottled water company in the U.S. supplying the nation's leading grocery, club store, convenience and mass merchandise retailers.
