Platy, Imathia

Platy (Greek: Πλατύ) is a town and a municipality in eastern Imathia, Greece.

[3] Platy was founded in 1924 by Greek refugees from Turkey after the Asia Minor Catastrophe.

When Platy was founded it remained a small village with 2,300 inhabitants (as a separate community) but with a very important role in the area of Imathia.

However, after the economic crisis of 1999-2002, many of the factories based in the industrial zone of Platy were closed.

[4] There have been recent discussions about upgrading the old military airport 2 km NW of Platy for civil use.
