We meticulously select our fish. Our responsibly sourced fresh fish and seafood have the aroma of Aegean sea and a tender, flaky meat no one can resist! This is as fresh as it can get!

We harvest fine crops

We trust exemplary units who research the greek countryside to choose the best fruits and vegetables from qualified and established producers. Always seasonal, organic when available and fresh.

The researchers state that, pound for pound, meal kits have a smaller carbon footprint than equivalent meals bought from a grocery store and prepared at home. A study in the scientific journal Resources, Conservation and Recycling, examines the whole life cycle — from farm to garbage can — of meal kits and their grocery store equivalents, and finds that, on average, store meals produce 33% more greenhouse gas emissions than their equivalents from meal kit industry. Much of the reduced emissions stems from less food waste and a more streamlined supply chain, according to the study. In marathos we deliver only the food you need for a meal, our plastic footprint offsets savings from reduced waste.
