It all began in a graphic coastal village of Boeotia, with a cottage industry that was created under the care and talent of Maria Loukia Marinou. Her home-made art of cookery aimed at combining pure ingredients from the natural wealth of the Greek soil with her knowledge of the Mediterranean traditional cuisine. Her goal was to bring back to the dinner table dishes that would emanate old forgotten fragrances and the taste of pure, natural ingredients.

The products of this cottage industry were received with particularly positive comments by people who are professionally involved in quality cuisine, by the most accredited connoisseurs in matters of taste, but also by consumers who seek for quality, tasteful and healthy food.

Hence the increase of consumers seeking quality products and their demand led Maria Loukia Marinou to build a unit with the cooperation of Panagiotis Nikas and his son, George, who are well known due to their extensive experience in the field of quality foods. This new unit was built in the healthy environment of a plateau in Fokida, with the appropriate production capacity so that the products may be strictly controlled for quality and consistent levels of flavours.
