Hellas Meze

Hellas Meze brings the treasures of the Greek sea to tables around the world, continuing a proud family tradition that began in 1950 in Volos by founders Volos and Efstathios Karagounis. For more than seven decades, this dedicated fishery has specialized in salted, smoked, and hand-filleted fish products, preserving authentic Greek flavors with unwavering commitment to quality and taste.

What started as a small operation in Volos has evolved into a modern production facility spanning 4,000 square meters, yet the founding principles remain unchanged. Every product reflects the family's deep love for their land, the passion inherited across generations, and a promise to deliver genuine Greek seafood traditions.

Craftsmanship and Quality Standards

Hellas Meze operates under strict quality assurance systems and food safety certifications, ensuring that every step of production meets the highest standards. The company processes exclusively fresh fish and shellfish, never using preservatives. Each fillet is prepared by hand, then carefully pickled and smoked using traditional methods that honor the craft passed down through the Karagounis family.

This meticulous approach—combining artisanal techniques with modern facilities—allows Hellas Meze to expand its catalog while keeping quality characteristics non-negotiable. The result is a range of seafood mezes that travel unchanged through time, carrying the authentic taste of the Greek coast to discerning tables worldwide.
