History

AEEK INKA, short for Athlitiki Enosi Ergazomenon Kritis INKA (Greek: Αθλητική Ένωση Εργαζομένων Κρήτης ΙΝΚΑ, transliterated INKA Athletic Union of Cretan Workers), was founded in 2009 by a group of workers in the shops of the IN.KA. Suppliers' and Consumers' Association, a chain of supermarkets operating in Crete. The club began playing in the third level of the Chania regional FCA League structure and within a few years, it won promotion to the top-level Chania FCA Championship.[1]

In the 2015−16 season, AEEK INKA were crowned champions of Chania by finishing first in the league, and eventually earned promotion to the Gamma Ethniki for the first time in their history, by placing second in the 2016 FCA Winners' Championship.[2]
