The Healthy Food Awards 2025 and Bio Food Awards 2025 are among the most prestigious events in Greece’s food industry. These awards celebrate the best and most innovative companies that promote quality, sustainability, and healthy eating habits. This year, the spotlight was on companies that stood out for their healthy products, many of which included the invaluable natural ingredient—honey.

The evaluation process was highly rigorous, conducted by a panel of experts, including taste judges, nutritionists, medical professionals, and food editors. Among the esteemed panelists was Spyros Skareas, a certified Honey Sommelier, who contributed his expertise to assess and reward the standout companies. Spyros expressed his honor and enthusiasm at being part of the judging panel:

This year’s winners proved that their success is no coincidence. By using natural ingredients like honey, implementing innovative production methods, and emphasizing sustainability, they emerged as leaders in the food industry. These companies set the bar high with products rich in nutrients and ideal for a healthy lifestyle, showcasing the evolution of Greek gastronomy and its ability to meet modern consumer needs. The company that dominated the awards was DIOSCURIDES SA, owned by the family of physician Stergios Tsimikas. In addition to receiving numerous accolades for their specialized honey and herb beverages, they earned the highest honor as Healthy Food & Beverage Company of the Year 2025. It is highly significant for a Greek company to be recognized for creating products of exceptional nutritional value, with honey and wild herbs as the main ingredients.

Participating in the Healthy Food and Bio Food Awards was an exceptional experience and a great privilege, Spyros Skareas states. Being able to reward companies that combine quality, sustainability, and innovation is incredibly fulfilling. Particularly, seeing honey—a natural, healthy ingredient—featured prominently in these innovative products is inspiring for the promotion of healthy eating and the natural value of food.

The Healthy Food Awards and Bio Food Awards not only recognize the taste and quality of products but also emphasize the importance of overall consumer well-being. These awards highlight the role of sustainability, innovation, and responsibility in food production, offering a roadmap for the future of the food industry.

This initiative celebrates the excellence of Greek products, particularly those featuring honey as a key ingredient. These award-winning companies are paving the way for a healthier future, blending tradition with modern innovation to meet the demands of today’s conscious consumers.
