Description
The journey of Stathori Dairy began in 1986 with a passion for tradition and quality, starting as a small livestock farm in Macedonia following the graduation of our founder, Ioannis Stathoris, from the renowned Dairy School of Ioannina.
In 2005, we transformed our traditional dairy into a state-of-the-art production and distribution facility for premium dairy products — embracing modern technology and strict hygiene regulations while never compromising on authenticity. By 2008, our commitment to excellence was recognized with ISO 22000 certification.
Cheese Production Visit and Tasting

Our milk is sourced from free-grazing herds in the pristine pastures of Northern Halkidiki, close to the sacred land of Mount Athos. For years, we have had the honor of supplying the Athonite Monasteries with our pure, artisanal products.
Our dairy facility has been awarded the first official “Visit-Friendly Dairy” certification in Greece, following the decision of the Ministry of Tourism.
