Changing America's Menus
About us
We’re a global food leader, known for innovative products and ethnic flavors. We started with Greek cuisine and now our kitchen is the world. From our full line of Greek and Mediterranean foods to global flavors blazing on the horizon, we’re ready to change America’s menus. We have two pioneering brands at the head of the table, Grecian Delight and Kronos Foods. Each brand has its own unique history, which has laid the foundation for our quest to discover the great flavors of tomorrow. Together, we are valuable partners to our customers, driven by authentic ingredients and eating experiences. About Grecian Delight Foods: Founded in 1974 by Peter Parthenis, Sr. Motivated by his endless drive, entrepreneurial spirit, Hellenic roots, love of Greek food and passion for innovation, Parthenis was the first to manufacture and nationally market gyros. Since the very start, Grecian Delight and the Parthenis family have been dedicated to quality and sharing the very best authentic Greek & Mediterranean cuisine with restaurants and consumers. Grecian Delight is now a premier provider of authentic selections from gyros, global proteins, specialty breads, to tzatziki, hummus and spreads, falafel, plant-based proteins and more. All across America, people ask for Grecian Delight Foods by name. About Kronos Foods Corp: It all started in 1975 with a love for Gyros, the Greek culture and community. Chris Tomaras, a Chicago entrepreneur, rolled up his sleeves to make delicious Gyros and Mediterranean foods for restaurants. It was with his success and hard work that Kronos was born. Over the years, Kronos brought pre-formed, ready-to-broil gyros cones to market, rolled out portion-controlled gyros meats, and expanded into sauces, hummus, bakery items, and more. Followed by the introduction of KronoBROIL® technology, providing pre-cooked, ready-to-eat gyros slices without the need for special foodservice equipment. To this day, Kronos continues to explore bold new possibilities.

For 50 years, innovation has driven us. First, we brought authentic Greek cuisine to gyro lovers across the United States. Then, we created a Mediterranean feast. We're focused on making the delicious ethnic foods that your patrons crave, and on making it easy for you to prepare and serve them. That's what we've always strived for—and we'll continue to do it because it's what we love.

It's International Falafel Day! Let's talk about how the tiny but mighty chickpea is more versatile than you might think. In fact, we've elevated it beyond the expected sandwich-based fritters and pucks in a pita. Offer guests the option they crave: a tantalizing falafel patty with a size of delicious falafel tots. Say goodbye to "plant-based" mystery burgers, and say hello to the plant-based protein menu additions that 37% of Millennials are interested in.

It's National Cheese Day, so here's a cheese-y rhyme to remind you that you can't getta betta than feta! Enjoy blocked. Sliced. Crumbled. As a topping on a Greek salad or gyro sandwich. Or especially in our delicious Spinach & Feta Chickpea Fritters, Feisty Feta Dip, Spanakopita entrées and apps, Sweet Corn Dip, on a panini with our Mediterranean Chicken, and so, so much more.
