Dairy products & cheese making

Epirus is one of Greece’s most important cheese-producing regions, and Ioannina is the main distribution point for this production. Feta PDO cheese occupies a dominant position, accompanied by products such as galotyri, kefalograviera, Metsovone cheese and Pindos kaskavali, which is a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) product.

The quality of the dairy products is due to the natural diet of the animals and the traditional production methods, which continue to be used alongside modern techniques. These products are a key element of both the local cuisine and the commercial identity of the region.
