WHY WE CHOSE AGROZIMI
We carefully select our Artisans based on a strict set of criteria and the belief that they share our own philosophy and values. We chose Agrozimi for brothers Kostas and Yiorgos Martavaltzoglou’s love of tradition, while still daring to experiment with flavors and techniques. We were also impressed by their state-of-the-art facility and commitment to high-quality product standards, all that show in their exceptional pasta. You can shop their collection here.
Today’s Agrozimi is the result of three generations of hard work and commitment to quality. In 1969 Yiorgos Martavaltzoglou, a refugee from Asia Minor, started a bakery in his village of Aravissós, in the Greek province of Macedonia. His children, wanting to guarantee the quality of the flour they used, started a mill in 1974 and gradually expanded it to produce traditional pasta, like hilopítes and trahaná. By 2010, the third generation of the Martavaltzoglou family moved the business to a modern new production facility, continuing to produce the traditional flavors while adding new ones, like spelt, farro and squid ink.
We met brothers Kostas and Yiorgos in the spring of 2018, when they invited us to visit their site (read more about that visit in our blog). There, they proudly pointed out the Italian-imported machinery, the pasteurized fresh eggs and milk (not powdered!) that they insisted on still using, as their father had…and we marveled at the spotlessly clean production lines and offices, while we basked in the scent of freshly made kritharáki. It was truly impressive that in Greece’s difficult economic climate, this family-run business has managed to thrive well into a third generation.
The reason for that clearly lies in the quality of their products. An Agrozimi pack is not your typical mass-produced pasta, and has a unique flavor and texture that is a testament to the Martavaltzoglou family’s commitment to quality. Kostas and Yiorgos continue to use Arávissos’ famous water and still buy grain from producers with whom their family has nurtured 40-year relationships. They have intentionally built their facility with high ceilings and plenty of open space to allow for natural drying chambers, avoiding high-speed drying ovens.
Zelos is proud to bring Agrozimi’s traditional products to the US and help the Martavaltzoglou family thrive for a fourth generation.
Agrozimi is HACCP & ISO 22000 certified as meeting international food safety management standards.

Agrozimi Handmade Pearl Couscous
$15.00
-
Pearl couscous (sometimes called Israeli couscous in the States) came to Greece from the Eastern Mediterranean. Women would patiently roll out the little balls of pasta to then prepare a filling meal. Agrozimi has kept this tradition, continuing to make the award-winning pasta by hand with the finest durum wheat semolina and fresh spring water from their village of Arávissos, with slow, natural drying. By using freshly pasteurized eggs and milk instead of powdered, they ensure a higher-quality, richer flavor. As an added plus, the 500gr. package is larger than typical pasta packages, weighing in at 17.6oz. or 1.1lbs. Importantly, there are no preservatives, additives, artificial flavors nor colorants.

Agrozimi Spelt Hilopites
$15.00
-
Traditional Greek hilopites are tasty noodles that look like fettuccine but come from the ancient Greek pasta, láganon. This delicious spelt version is bronze die-cut and made from robust spelt flour and the fresh spring water from the northern Greek village of Arávissos, where Agrozimi has been based for three generations.
Spelt (triticum spelta or dinkel) has a full flavor with nutty notes and a rough texture that holds sauce beautifully. A long-ago ancestor of today’s commercial wheat, spelt is more easily digested than common wheat, since its gluten has more water-soluble proteins, and spelt’s total protein content is up to 25% higher than most typical wheat varieties. Spelt is also an excellent source of iron, magnesium, zinc, vitamins B1 and B2, and beneficial fatty acids.

Their festive, bright colors are a wonderful addition to any special meal.
