Great products always find a way to make their voice heard, and numerous taste competitions aim at exactly that: to reward companies for best practices and R&D, and inform consumers of high quality products they should know about.
In this context, Kriton Artos products stood out at the recent Bakery Awards, with the Paximadokleftra line of rusks, including 4 different flavors, receiving the Gold Award, while the Mikio series, which also includes four flavors, received the Bronze. Cretan Bread Nuts received Platinum at the Chef’s Choice Awards 2024, while a second award at the same organization went to Cretan Artos’ new three-flavor breadcrumb range.
About Kriton Artos
The company was founded in 2004 with the acquisition of a family business that produced traditional Cretan pastry products. In April 2005 Kriton Artos relocated to privately-owned facilities covering 3000 m². That same year it came up with the innovative idea of private label products. K.A. was the first company to produce Cretan baked snacks under the label of a well known supermarket chain. In November 2005 it was certified with HACCP ELOT 1416 and IFS Higher level. The factory’s current data include a land area over 4000 sqm, three traditional Cretan rusks production lines, two snack production lines, two vertical flow pack packaging lines, two horizontal flow pack packaging lines and a daily production capacity of 30.000 kilos of finished product (maximum)*. Canada, Australia and the United States are among the company’s export destinations.
