Generations in Crete have nurtured the tradition of Maggiri pasta, a legacy unaffected by time.
The Traditional Pasta Workshop “MAGGIΡΙ,” faithful to its heritage, was established to offer pure and high-quality pasta without preservatives or artificial additives. Crafted with fresh eggs and goat milk from local producers, our aim is to provide products with high nutritional value. For this reason, our pasta is dehydrated for many hours at low temperatures to preserve its nutritional integrity.
The workshop offers four categories of products, totaling over 20 codes:
Vides (Spirals):
Hylopites (Traditional Greek Pasta Squares):
Traditional Pasta:
Our products are available at approximately 300 retailers in Greece and abroad, as well as on the eshop on the official website of the Workshop.
The workshop premises hold ISO quality certifications.

Sustainability in tourism refers to a way of developing tourism that respects and protects the environment while strengthening the local economy and preserving cultural traditions. The aim of sustainable tourism is to provide unique and authentic experiences for visitors without harming the natural and social environment, while ensuring that local communities benefit from tourism activity.
This type of tourism is based on three pillars:
With sustainable tourism, visitors can have authentic experiences, knowing that the impact of tourism on the region is positive and lasting for future generations.
For Rural Greece, localism is one of the most important factors for the development of sustainable tourism, as it promotes a strong link between the tourism product and the local society, economy and culture. Through localism, visitors get the opportunity to explore authentic elements of the destination, such as local products, traditions and culture. This not only boosts the local economy, but also helps to sustain and strengthen local businesses, creating new jobs and supporting the development of local communities.
Furthermore, localism contributes to the sustainability of the tourism sector, as it reduces the use of resources from other regions and encourages the use of local goods and services, reducing the ecological footprint of tourism activities. Thus, integrating localism into tourism practices enhances sustainability awareness, both among visitors and local businesses, creating a more responsible and sustainable tourism destination.
