From homeopathic remedies to natural products
Korres natural products is a Greek company with roots in the first Homeopathic Pharmacy of Athens. The first Korres product was an aromatic herbal syrup with honey and aniseed, a recipe inspired by "rakomelon", a warming spirit-with-honey concoction, which George Korres' grandfather used to favour in his hometown on the island of Naxos.
Utilising the experience with
3000 homeopathic remedies of herbal origin and hundreds of herbal preparations, the company today offers more than
500 skin and hair care products, suncare, a full colour line, nutraceuticals and a herbal-pharmacy range of products. They can be found at leading department stores and
18 stand alone stores and 6.250 salespoints in 30 countries around the world.
Set up in 1996 with the aim to utilise its extensive scientific resources for the creation of beneficial and safe products, the company today offers a complete skin and hair care range, make-up, sun care products and herbal preparations. A team of experienced scientists worked closely to make this happen, sharing common goals and values.
Greek Flora
Greek flora is renowned for its wealth as it numbers over 5,500 varieties, 1200 out of which are endemic plants, that are not to be found anywhere else in the world. The south Aegean islands, Crete as well as some of the country's highest mountains like Olympus, Parnassos and Taygetos are very rich in herbs and plants.
A special characteristic of the Greek vegetation, is the hard-leaf bush that often forms a thick, almost impenetrable barrier; over the summer it attracts bees, and of course gives itself away by releasing a very strong fragrance; anything from oregano, dittany and myrtle to sage, lavender and thyme.
