Navarino Icons is a brand of food products and art objects introduced in 2011 by Costa Navarino, a Greek resort in Messinia developed by the Tourism Enterprises of Messinia S. A. (TEMES S.A.). Navarino Icons brand of food products and art objects are inspired by the history and culture of the Messinian region and the Peloponnese of Greece.[3][4][5][6][7]
History
The history of Navarino Icons began in 2011 when Costa Navarino decided to promote the history and culture of the Messinian region and the Peloponnese of Greece worldwide through their traditional food and art. According to Donna Paul in Edible Manhattan, "the story begins with a mother. Maria Balafouti runs the Folklore Museum (that I visited) in a small village named Yalova. She started to make spoon sweets to treat the guests of the museum. Soon she began to make spoon sweets for Costa Navarino. They now have a small company employing five local women that make what you’ll find at Dean & Deluca."[5]
Costa Navarino is a Greek resort in Messinia. It was developed by the Tourism Enterprises of Messinia S. A. (TEMES S.A.), a resort development company founded by Vassilis C. Constantakopoulos.[5][7][8]
Products
Navarino Icons food products and art objects are made by local Messinian and Peloponnese Greeks—drawing inspiration from their history and culture—using traditional methods. The food products are made from traditional Mycenaean Greece recipes, and the art objects are also based on the Mycenaean traditional arts. Local raw materials from the Messinian region and the Peloponnese of Greece are used.[6] Vasiliki Mitrakos in her contribution to the Reinventing Greece Media Project acknowledged that the Navarino Icons range features hand-made crafts by local artisans and organic food products from sustainable farms.[7]
The food products of Navarino Icons includes extra virgin olive oil, olives, Sesame seed candy (pasteli), traditional Greek sweets, fresh fruit marmalades, biscuits made from extra virgin olive oil and oranges, honey, roasted red peppers and eggplants, dips of peppers-tomatoes and pasta.[6] The art objects includes ceramic arts of dice, doll figurine, dish, sandal and animal figures, and paper crafts of 3D animal figures and jigsaw puzzles with themes from Mycenaean frescoes.[6]
Distribution
The Navarino Icons range of food products and art objects are distributed through Hellenic Duty Free Shops, Dean & Deluca, Attica Department Stores and other outlets.[3][9] Costa Navarino also has a cooperation with Lufthansa to promote the Navarino Icons brand to Lufthansa passengers worldwide. The Navarino Icons range are featured at Lufthansa Business Lounges.[6]
Recognition
Navarino Icons and Dean & DeLuca were jointly nominated for the Hellenic American Leadership Council (HALC)'s Best & Worst of the Week series in March 2012 for embracing programs aimed at promoting Greek products.[10] In April 2012, the products of Navarino Icons were showcased at the Greek Orthodox Easter Traditions Regimen and Products event organized by the Embassy of Greece in Washington, D.C., where Navarino Icons and Dean & DeLuca jointly showcased Greek gastronomy.[4]
