Τaste the best of Greece A PORTFOLIO OF FLAVORS & AROMAS
A mission of taste Greek gastronomy as part of the Mediterranean diet is one of the world’s richest. Long before it was related to health and longevity. Therefore, we felt it was our mission to preserve its traditional recipes and introduce its delicious taste to the international public.
Consumers responded to our call and we kept growing just by safeguarding the authenticity of the Mediterranean and Greek cuisine. In the last six decades our company established production facilities in 3 countries, expanded to new international markets and created a wide variety of products.
We now cook 120 different recipes for over 240 labels distributed to customers in more than 40 countries around the world. Hundreds of professionals rely on our products for their art and trade and millions of people appreciate our cooking in their everyday life.
Looking back at where we started, what remained unchanged is our love for good food, our respect for tradition and our commitment to quality.
A history full of tradition It all started in 1957 with Antonis Souliotis, his wife Nota and two traditional recipes they loved to cook and cherish with friends –the vine leaves stuffed with rice and fine herbs and the baked giants beans in a tomato and onion sauce.
Souliotis family named their business “Palirria” -the Greek word for the coastal tides, typical of their small village on the island of Evia. They thought that their craft should cross the borders and be cherished by more and more people. Twenty years later the small family business has become a renowned Greek food producer and exporter.
Today, Palirria feels and acts as a proud ambassador of the Greek and Mediterranean cuisine around the globe! The company manages production facilities in Greece, Bulgaria and China with an annual production output of 17.000 tons for a wide range of traditional ready to eat meals and appetizers. Palirria is the world’s number one producer and exporter of vine leaves stuffed with rice, the famous Dolmas.
A family of quality foods Ready-to-eat meals and appetizers! These are the dishes we love to cook. These are the products we turn into convenient, popular, worthy to sell, top quality food for consumers who may come from different cultures but share the same passion for a tasty and delightful Mediterranean food experience.
From “my sweet home� out to the world One of my most vivid childhood memories is of the food my parents cooked for us. I can still smell the aromas and feel the taste of these gastronomic memories we all possess whichever region or continent we come from. I can also recall the atmosphere of our Sundays around
the family table...the anticipation and joy of a social gathering in its purest form -relatives and close friends all eating and drinking together. As time goes by traditions like this along with the freshness and purity of the handpicked vegetables or the age-old recipes for the homemade food, seem to fade away. I strongly believe that abandoning these values means a great loss. So, we made it our mission
here at Palirria to safeguard and turn them into qualities that any decent meal should have. We rely on our memories and our authentic Greek and Mediterranean recipes to offer the same outstanding homemade flavors, not only to our family and friends but also to millions of consumers around the world. Konstantinos Souliotis, President
A set of values What all our people are committed to is this set of values: • Respect to the Tradition of Greek and the Mediterranean Cuisine • Careful Selection of Natural Ingredients • High Quality and Food Safety • Innovation • Customer Satisfaction
True to our promise! New global trends and travel experiences allow consumers easier access to the richness of ethnic cuisines. To those who have actually visited one of the Mediterranean countries, tens of millions are added each year. They all wish to enjoy the benefits of our gastronomy.
Our goal is to offer them authenticity and quality. We draw from the authentic recipes we work with for decades while searching for more, like our new fish recipes from the Aegean islands. Then we turn to the ingredients; their freshness and purity is a constant prerequisite for our suppliers. And then we make sure the taste is right, delicious, homemade, classic! This is where innovation comes in: new technologies enable us to produce traditional food on a large scale.
What we know best though is to meet our customers’ diverse needs whichever is the target market - European, Arabian, American or Asian! This is not an easy task but it makes us proud! Vasilios Souliotis Managing Director
