Korres

George Korres is the initiator and "leader" of KORRES, which was founded in 1996, having its roots in the oldest Homeopathic Pharmacy of Athens. There he began experimenting with natural medicinal ingredients, developing herbal preparations, natural medicines and then cosmetic products.

The first KORRES product was an aromatic throat syrup with honey and anise, inspired by the warming racomelo made by grandfather Giorgos Korres in his hometown, Naxos. The first cosmetic product - and best-seller worldwide to date - was Wild Rose 24-Hour Moisturizing Cream, the first natural 24-hour moisturizing cream.

Today, the complete line of KORRES includes over 400 natural and certified organic products with a range that extends from face, body and hair care to make-up products, sunscreens and herbal treatments. The preparation of all these products is based on four groups of natural ingredients: herbs with medicinal properties, herbs from the Greek flora, edible ingredients and highly effective natural actives. The use of specific chemical compounds is avoided and these materials are replaced by other equally effective natural ingredients, friendly to the skin and the environment. Our values remain the same as those of the pharmacy days. We are committed to using high quality herbs and natural ingredients that are skin and environment friendly and clinically tested for safety and efficacy. Affordable products to allow daily use but at the same time of high aesthetic value.

Our aim is to provide innovative and effective products based on active ingredients of natural origin, to promote research into natural ingredients combined with skin biochemistry and to highlight the precious Greek herbs through collaborations with local growers and production of our own high quality herbal extracts biological value.

We are working with a number of high-profile bodies, such as the School of Pharmacy of the University of Athens, in an effort to map the properties of the Greek flora, the Chios Mastic Growers Association and the Kozani Crocus Growers Association, which is considered the best variety of saffron in the world. The company currently has 23 stores around the world, in Athens, Paris, Madrid, Prague, Barcelona, etc. KORRES products are also available in department stores in Tokyo, Los Angeles, Berlin, Sydney, New Delhi, Singapore, Tokyo and in over 6,000 pharmacies throughout Greece.
