Ergon is the brainchild of entrepreneurial brothers Thomas and Giorgos Douzis, who have made it their mission to promote Greek gastronomy and become leading global ambassadors for high quality Greek food and culinary culture. The brothers founded Ergon in 2009, opening the first concept store in Thessaloniki with a selection of traditionally-made, premium Greek products, sourced from small independent producers, and there are now 23 company-owned or franchise delis in Greece, Cyprus, the UK, and Qatar. The delicatessens are also café-restaurants serving modern versions of traditional dishes, and their success has led to the opening of Ergon House Athens, a boutique hotel with a food market on the first floor, where guests can purchase pasta, baked goods, meat, cheese, and other fresh local products, as well as a restaurant serving creative Greek cuisine.
