Bringing the True Taste of Greece to America

Founded in 2017 by Maria Kalomenidou, Zelos Authentic Greek Artisan is a purpose-driven marketplace that brings authentic, responsibly-sourced Greek flavors to the U.S. Maria’s vision is rooted in her desire to share her passion, or “zēlos”—the Greek word for zeal, energy, and enthusiasm—while helping small Greek businesses thrive in a challenging economic environment.

Zelospartners with artisans in Greece who produce all-natural, small-batch products, offering a healthier and tastier alternative to industrially processed foods. The company ensures that every product is either organic or made with all-natural ingredients, allowing customers to enjoy clean, authentic Greek flavors with confidence in the product’s origins.

For Maria, food has always been a way to nurture relationships and express love. Through Zelos, she shares the genuine flavors of modern Greece, helping people experience contemporary Greek cuisine beyond clichés. By supporting these artisans, Zelos not only promotes the best of Greece but also creates a social impact by aiding small producers and their local communities.

Zelos connects Americans to the rich, evolving culinary traditions of Greece, bringing a taste of home to those far away while supporting the growth of small businesses back in Greece.
