A TALE OF TWO BROTHERS

Brothers Pierre-Julien and Grégory Chantzios were born to a Greek father and a French mother. Raised near Toulouse, they spent their childhood going between the two European countries, always being surrounded by their rich cultures.

Their Greek family has been producing olive oil in in the Kalamata region, in the southern area of Greece, for eight generations. And it was in 2010 that they decided to take on the expansion of their family’s business, and founded Kalios. In January of that year, right after the harvest, they drove to Paris on their motorbikes, bringing with them the olives and olive oils. They arranged spontaneous tastings in restaurants, having the chefs sample their wares. In only two months, they were able to sell 12 two-kilo jars of olives, 18 jars of olive paste, and 30 five-liter cans of olive oil. It was only the beginning!

Today, Kalios is sold in over 80 high-end restaurants, and has become a staple in the Greek grocery industry. It’s used by over 1000 chefs, including some of the world’s best. It’s now also found in some of the biggest Paris delicatessens— La Grande épicerie de Paris, Galeries Lafayette Gourmet, and many others.
