Demand is increasing for better-quality food products made by small-scale producers and not requiring transportation over thousands of kilometres before reaching dinner tables.

Small-scale Greek producers, steering clear of mass production and standardisation, are responding to this growing trend with a wide range of goods, offering superior taste and quality.

We took a look around Athens to recommend a number of grocery stores stocked with top-quality products.

Ellinika Kaloudia
This grocery store, situated behind the Acropolis Museum, might be small but it stocks many gems produced on Greek land. The store’s shelves, occupying the entire space, carry local products of the highest quality, all carefully selected by this venture’s proprietors. Don’t skip the aged graviera cheeses from Crete and Naxos, the charcuterie from Karditsa, or the wide range of pasta from all over Greece.
