Advantages and Innovations
Advantages and innovation
In Crete, there are 1,828 native plants (while the whole of Greece has about 6,500 and the whole of Europe 13,000). The number of endemic plants in Crete amounts to about 189 species and subspecies, which means that 10% of the island’s flora is unique.
Cretan herbs offer a unique combination of medicinal properties that provide various therapeutic benefits. From boosting the immune system to relieving stress and anxiety, these organic herbs are a powerful tool for improving overall health and well-being.
• After being hand-harvested, the herbs are immediately transferred to a dark, well-ventilated drying facility, where the natural drying process begins.
• Upon completion, they are stored under optimal conditions until processing begins.
• Depending on the needs, the herbs are chopped, defoliated, sieved and placed in appropriate packaging for domestic and international markets.
Growth through selected partnerships

While initially the company relied exclusively on its own organic crops in the mountainous region of Chania, it has now expanded its reach through partnerships with carefully selected producers from Greece. Its expertise allows the company to meet growing demand while maintaining strict quality standards. All herbs are selected, processed and packaged in its certified facilities, ensuring that only the best products from the Cretan and Greek land reach the market.
The company places particular emphasis on its values:
- Integrity, honesty and a sense of responsibility towards its customers and partners.
- High quality of products and services
- Safety and control throughout the production process to ensure top quality until consumption
- Strong family ethos at every stage - from cultivation to the final product

The company is ISO 22000:2018 certified and has received multiple accolades including Great Taste Awards, 1001 Degustation's and AVPA.
