Ragian

Ragian was founded in 1986 to promote a different nutritional model based on traditional, healthy, and seasonal eating rather than globalised dietary practices. It draws inspiration from Pontus’s culinary heritage and utilises valuable dietary knowledge rooted in nature, seasonality, and respect for natural resources.

Its philosophy is centred on preserving local production, cultural identity, and traditional recipes. It focuses on fermented dairy products, pasta, and pies, wisely utilising agriculture and livestock farming. The richness of Pontic cuisine, such as cheeses made from semi-skimmed milk and products like paskitan and tsiortania, is passed down to future generations.

Ragian represents an effort for nutritional self-sufficiency and health, encouraging consumers to reassess their relationship with food and small-scale producers.
