Food processing and safety

Food safety and quality are the primary concerns of Antonio foods. It supplies its customers with healthy, natural foods of minimal processing, which can be easily incorporated either in a health food diet or in traditional, gourmet Greek food recipes. That can only be achieved through strictly controlled production.

The selected products, which have passed our chemical testing for food safety*, are purchased "first hand" from the growers and then transported to the factory of Antonio foods, where they are warehoused until processing.

After the cleaning stage, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds are salted and roasted in special roasters under controlled conditions. Finally the products are packaged and stacked on palettes for transportation.

All products are run through dedicated cleaning/screening machines, thus removing any existing foreign matter and other impurities. Thus a very high degree of cleanliness is achieved, which usually lies above 99.9%. At the same time the product is sized.

The finished products are of highest quality, tasty and exceptionally nutritious. These are the main factors that secure high demand from the consumers and make Antonio foods a dependable food processor and exporter, supplying food distributors, brokers, wholesalers, importers and super market chains.
