Since antiquity, Greeks worshipped and respected the natural products of their land, developing a simple, yet effective diet, with health promoting properties. Traditional Greek dishes are still made from recipes handed down from generation to generation. Gaea was founded in 1995 upon the finding that Greek agricultural food products, despite their inherent high quality and good taste, were absent from international markets. The Gaea product range offers all the tasty ingredients, indispensable for the finest, traditional Greek cuisine. These ingredients are exclusively of the highest quality: naturally grown in the fertile earth of Greece, sun-ripened and harvested the traditional way. It is important for Gaea to preserve and to optimize what “Mother Earth” is offering to the people. Visit www.gaea.gr for more information.
