Lydia’s grew more as it became a custom baker for its larger clients.  It is a service that we provide to our customers in need of making a difference in their shop shelves. The customer gives us a general direction and we create the products that can backup their plan and finally meet their goals. Our team of chefs, menu makers and food technologists take up the challenge until the customer’s goals are met.

Our company is ISO22000:2005 certified by TuV Hellas. Many of our clients have also certified our company under  their own individual certification companies. Our products are exported in Cyprus, Bulgaria and Romania. Since 2014 it is also certified by the  Association of European Celiac Societies for the production and distribution of Gluten Free Products. (Registration number GR-008).

We hope that you too will join our growing business family.
