Kontos is the Premier Baker of Hand-Stretched Flatbreads
It's our traditional hand-stretching method that makes all the difference—Our flatbread bakes to a golden brown on the outside but stays light and flavorful on the inside.

Starting with the Pita of the Eastern Mediterranean and expanding the range of flavors and styles to include the Asian Nan flatbreads, today we offer more than 30 varieties of flatbread.  Panini (which can come with grill marks for more appealing sandwiches), Cocktail Flatbread (in 2-inch rounds as a base for appetizers and mini-sliders) and Pan Plano (flatbread infused with the spicy flavors of Mexico) demonstrate our commitment to using traditional baking skills to appeal to today’s tastes and food trends.

Gyro & Other Meat Products
Kontos supplies only premium grade Gyro and meat products. Our reputation depends on it.

You can be sure that the gyro and other meat products we supply for use in delis, sandwich shops, restaurants, or colleges and universities is of a premium quality and USDA approved.  Cones, loaves or slices of Gyro Meats, Souvlaki on skewers, and food service trays of Pastichio and Moussaka are prepared and packaged for maximum efficiency in any foodservice operation. 

Kontos Fillo Dough
In 1949, Evris Kontos brought his experience as a phyllo mastoras (master fillo maker) from Cyprus to the United States.

He developed the first machine to produce ultra thin Fillo, allowing this light, flaky pastry to be available in your local market. From our tissue thin #4 Fillo to our thickest and strongest yet, #10 Country-Style Fillo, our range of thicknesses adds a new dimension to your culinary creativity and the finishing touch to your sweet desserts, savory appetizers, and entrees.  Try our Kataifi to add beautiful birds’ nests and delicate pastry decoration to your creations.
