General information

Short Summary
A Greek SME active in producing a variety of specialised vinegar products is interested in concluding commercial agreements with importers, distributors or wholesalers.
Full Description
For more than 26 years this Greek premium food company has been specializing in producing high-quality vinegar made from the famous carefully-selected Greek grape variety Agiorgitiko. This particular variety of grape is sourced locally from Nemea, the largest wine-making region in Greece. Thanks to the rich and fertile local soil, the vinegar the company offers has a unique taste and a pure and distinctive quality. In particular, it offers various vinegars and related products such as wine vinegar, balsamic cream, pure grape syrup, and olive oil.

In particular, its ‘petimezi’ pure grape syrup is made from 100% pure concentrated grape-must, and follows a traditional recipe without using any preservatives. Recent scientific studies have shown that it has a rich nutritious value and is prized for its delicious sweet taste and its high iron and calcium content. Petimezi can be used as a tasty substitute for honey or maple syrup. It can also be enjoyed drizzled generously on ice cream, yoghurt, pancakes or waffles to give them an extra boost with its distinct flavor and sweetness. It is perfect for glazes and dressings, and it can also be mixed with tahini to make a good superfood.

The company offers its products wholesale and retail, but they are also available in packages suitable for professionals in the food sector and catering services. The products carry the ISO 9001 and ISO 22000. certification.

The client has been making efforts to export its products abroad but is well below its targets. So, the company is looking for international partners to boost its expansion abroad and help increase its presence on global markets through solid commercial agreements with importers, distributors and wholesalers.
Advantages and Innovations
The company has built up expertise and know-how on the optimum use of traditional old oak barrels to give its vinegar products that extra value of rich flavour and the distinct quality that comes from being barrel-aged for 5 years.

Balsamic vinegar is a source of iron, manganese and potassium, which are elements that help with weight loss. It also contains polyphenols, which are antioxidants that keep the heart healthy.

The company’s range of products present a high concentration of antioxidants, vitamins, elements, metals. They have a beneficial effect on the human body and assist in its correct functioning.

In addition to the retail packaging, the company also offers wooden gift boxes including a combination of classic or special products, and are available in two sizes.
