Frugeo Geography Research Initiative
Established on the 20th November, 2011, by Laszlo Bokor in Wolverhampton, England, Frugeo Geography Research Initiative (Frugeo GRI Limited) was born from a passion for Earth and Environmental Sciences. Frugeo is a dedicated, down-to-earth education and research venture with a mission to make these sciences accessible, engaging and impactful. Since its founding, Frugeo GRI has navigated several relocations and undergone substantial changes, adapting to evolving needs in the field while staying true to its educational and scientific roots.
Today, Frugeo GRI focuses on advancing Earth Sciences as part of a larger network, with an emphasis on both academic and practical applications. We specialise in sourcing and providing high-quality mineral and rock specimens to educational institutions, researchers and enthusiasts. Additionally, Frugeo GRI offers a suite of Earth Science-related services, including educational outreach, consultancy, and hands-on workshops tailored to both professional and community audiences.
Frugeo GRI is a unique venture led entirely by Laszlo, whose expertise and enthusiasm for Earth Sciences are at the heart of everything we do.

Laszlo Bokor ~ Owner of Frugeo GRI
I am a professional researcher with a background in regional geography and urban sciences, honed through studies at universities across Europe, including Pécs, Wolverhampton, Maribor, Zagreb, Ljubljana, and Birmingham. My primary research focus has been on the energetic dimensions of geography, but my interests span various disciplines, such as sustainability, environmental sciences, and landscape geography. This diverse expertise enables me to conduct and synthesise research across multiple geographical fields.
During my years as a PhD student, I served as a lecturer, teaching topics such as renewable energy resources and world regional geography to BSc and MSc students. In 2015, I officially became a qualified teacher after completing my PGCE at Birmingham City University, which allowed me to apply my geographical knowledge in practical and educational settings. My teaching experience has since expanded to include prison and SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) environments, where I taught Science, Mathematics, and several other subjects across a wide range of ages, abilities, and learning levels.
My career has also taken me internationally. In Hangzhou, China, I taught science at a leading primary school, where I helped establish a geology expedition group to engage young students in the exploration of Earth Sciences.
