Against food waste

At the beginning we conducted our research: Every year, an average European consumes 179 kg. of food and every household literally throws away 590 euros. Then we realised: It is important, if not necessary, to immediately change our way of thinking and then our nutritional habits. The results of proper nutritional habits can be highly beneficial: to the environment, the society, as well as our family basket. Finally, we made it: In marathos we are strongly against food waste. We literally provide you with...

Fish

One of the key elements of the famous Mediterranean diet is fish. Fishing was a hobby for the Mediterranean people since their very existence and so fish could be found on every table daily. Geographically speaking, Greece is surrounded by four seas (The Ionian Sea, The Aegean Sea, The Sea of Crete and The Libyan Sea).

Eat Greek! Basil

In Greece, we don’t have a taste for spicy food. There is seasoning in the food, but rarely chilies. You will never hardly meet a Greek who would eat more than what would be called “mild” spice. But we do love herbs. They add that extra special touch to our food that makes it extraordinary, unique, bursting with heavenly flavor. One of our favorites: Basil. Dubbed the “king of Herbs”, because of its resemblance to the Greek word king (basileus),...

The marathos plant

marathos is fennel in Greek. We chose this specific plant as our brand name because it’s a representative of Mediterranean cuisine.

All parts of the plant are aromatic and used in flavouring, and the bulblike stem base of Florence fennel and the blanched shoots are eaten as a vegetable. Its seeds and extracted oil are suggestive of anise in aroma and taste...
