About Estia Foods

We are ambassadors of Greece. We select our products based on their highest natural taste.

Our Philosophy

Estia means the “hearth” (fireplace) of the house in Greek.

The hearth is often seen as the heart of the home, representing warmth, family, and a sense of belonging.

We believe that food should not only be enjoyable but also nourishing. Our products of unique flavours, authenticity, and health benefits are a testament to our commitment to providing our guests and customers with the best culinary experience and promoting well-being.

Our goal is to introduce Greek natural quality ingredients and promote the culture and flavours of Greece through our family recipes.

Estia is a “home away from home”, a hospitable place where food becomes the connections, the reminisce, the beginning of a story to tell.

Our Story

Our journey began with a deep love for Greece and its exquisite culinary traditions. Every time we visited our family, we would immerse ourselves in the local markets, filling our suitcases with authentic Greek ingredients, spices, and flavors.

Once at home, we do what we love: gather our friends and loved ones around the dining table, preparing delicious meals, and sharing stories and laughter. We believe that food brings people together, creating a sense of warmth and belonging.

It was during one of these moments that a thought occurred to us: why not bring the taste of Greece for everyone, no matter where they are, and share what we love to do with the rest of the world.

our hope is, through Estia Foods and Products, you too can create your own unforgettable moments with friends and families, savoring delicious meals.

Founder

Hiromi Sakalis

Born and raised in the city of Shizuoka, Japan, Hiromi grew up with a deep appreciation for the simple joys of fresh seafood and green tea. Her passion for hospitality grew through her studies and work in California and Vancouver, which ultimately led her to the Middle East, where she pursued a career in Hospitality Management. It was there that she met her husband, who introduced her to the rich traditions of Greece.

Hiromi not only found love in Greece but also developed a profound connection with its people, culture, and cuisine. Today, she considers Greece her third home, and she embraces its vibrant way of life with the same passion that has driven her throughout her career.
