Our Story Behind the Flavors...
Our Family is Dedicated to Culinary Excellence
From generation to generation, our family has been committed to the art of food, with over 80 years of experience spanning across the globe—from Los Angeles and Sydney to Athens and Santorini. We’ve lived and learned from diverse cultures and cuisines, but our hearts have always remained in Crete.
In 2019, we returned to the island that shaped us and founded Cretan Gourmet, headquartered in Chania.
Cretan Gourmet is not just a business. It’s the natural continuation of our love for exceptional food and genuine hospitality. At our company, we prioritize quality, authenticity, and fresh local production. We work with ingredients from the fertile lands of Crete, reviving traditional recipes and crafting new flavors that marry tradition with modern culinary demands.
Our Mission
We aim to offer authentic flavors that are not merely dishes but experiences. Our goal is to support food service businesses and share our philosophy with every partner.
At Cretan Gourmet, we believe that great food brings people together, and we pour our passion into delivering it to everyone.
