Renowned Chef Teams Up with Grecian Delight to Offer On-Trend Mediterranean Foods
Grecian Delight Foods, Inc., a leading manufacturer, national marketer and distributor of Mediterranean and ethnic-inspired foods, will make a splash at the Natural Products Expo West, introducing a partnership with first female Iron Chef Cat Cora and showcasing new additions to her line of products, Cat Cora’s Kitchen. Grecian Delight and Cora will be at booth No. 6311 sampling the ethnic foods which include all-natural artisan flatbreads, premium hummus and Greek yogurt-based dips.
With Mediterranean food quickly becoming the top emerging ethnic food in retail, Cat Cora’s Kitchen products are quickly gaining traction nationwide. Attendees are invited to stop by the booth at the expo, which will be held March 7-9, 2014 at Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, Calif., to sample the products, meet Cora and enter to win her new cookbook, Classics with a Twist.
In addition to Cat Cora’s Kitchen products, Grecian Delight will be present at booth No. 6605 featuring Opaa! Brand Dips. The dips are Greek yogurt based – not mixed with mayo, cream cheese or sour cream – addressing the popularity of Greek yogurt and better-for-you products. With the flavored spreads category predicted by Mintel to grow 66 percent by 2016, the dips bring a Mediterranean flair to the segment with better-for-you ingredients.
“The Mediterranean food segment is exploding and Grecian Delight has a lot to offer to the natural products category this year,” said Peter Cokinos, general manager and executive vice president at Grecian Delight Foods. “We’re thrilled that celebrated chef Cat Cora trusts in the brand to partner and produce on-trend Mediterranean food options. Natural Products West Expo is the perfect place to showcase Cat Cora’s Kitchen with Grecian Delight Foods.
