Zante Ferries, also known as ANMEZ (Ανώνυμη Ναυτιλιακή Μεταφορική Εταιρεία Ζακύνθου) in Greek, was a Greek ferry company operating from the Greek mainland to the West Cyclades, Samothrace and Lemnos from the ports of Piraeus and Alexandroupolis. The company was founded on 25 January 1991 and ceased operations on 2024 after Fast Ferries acquired the last two ferries Dionisios Solomos and Adamantios Korais.[1][2]
