The idea of the company came after the announcement of UNESCO in 2010, to include the Mediterranean diet in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, upon request made jointly by Greece, Spain, Italy and Morocco. Greece, because of its climatic conditions and morphology, produces most of the main products that make up the Mediterranean diet. Having faith in the fertile Greek land’s products, the company decided to promote them globally, showing that this small country of the Mediterranean Basin – ‘a land for flowers and bees’ – is blessed by the Gods. The company started its own beekeeping unit and in cooperation with other units it created a portfolio of Greek products embodying its efforts in a Trading Company of Greek Standardized Food Products, ‘TML P.C.’ -which stands for the brand name ‘The Mediterranean Land’, with the goal to design collateral elements of olive oil, honey and balsamic vinegars line products that transport the essence of the homeland Mother Nature. The company chose the names ‘athena’ for our olive oils line, ‘nectar’ for our bee products line and ‘acetum’ for our balsamic vinegars line. All of the products’ bottles are made of top quality Italian glass, while the logos are printed directly on them, creating a unique package that costumers never throw away. Through this brand name “The Mediterranean Land” the aim of the company is to reflect the philosophy of the company to offer products that fully incorporate all the benefits of the acknowledged Mediterranean diet, using the most approved and traditional practices and precluding any artificial processes. Also the success story of the brand name is that the company managed to create an intension though its brand and inform the consumers all over the world about the high nutritional and medicinal qualities of the Greek products and offer them the best quality in a very special package. The “The Mediterranean Land” brand is recognizable as a synonym of quality, elegance and a healthy lifestyle. The quality and the package leave everyone satisfied, as all the aromas and tastes of the Greek countryside are gathered in its beautiful bottles! 25
