For Cretan Mama, tomatoes are a family matter. Cretan Mama is the fourth generation to run Cretan Mama Tomatoes, a Crete, Greece-based company founded in 2000.

The key to having a fresh product is to reduce the time from harvesting to transformation.

At Cretan Mama, the route from our privately owned tomato-orchard to our factory is no more than 1 kilometer. This saves CO2 and ensures more flavour: the less time there is between harvesting and further processing, the fresher the taste of the tomatoes.

Cretan Mama has won the trust of its customers.

Increased awareness of regional, high-quality products and the trend toward sustainability have also fueled our success and recognition from our distributors and the households.

Innovation, sustainability, ethical values

We did not choose the easy route. With regards to tomato varieties, we select varieties with excellent organoleptic characteristics. These varieties are productive and tolerant to the physical stresses caused by climate change in the south of Crete.

Sustainability in terms of quality and production

Quality is not true quality if it is not sustainable for our region. For this reason, since 2010 we have been certifying our products with BIOHELLAS, as a guarantee of agricultural production that is naturally more focused on sustainable principles, without compromising quality.
