What Biofresh Cosmos does

Biofresh Cosmos is a London-headquartered, vertically integrated citrus juice producer and B2B ingredient supplier, established in 2002 on the basis of 50 years of accumulated industry know-how. The company operates owned plantations in Greece (Laconia region) and the Middle East, four processing/blending facilities — TOF in Sparta, TOW in Cairo, TOC in Sao Paulo, and the Pure & Natural joint venture in Venlo, Netherlands (200MT/day processing, 36MT/hour aseptic filling) — and a network of regional commercial entities covering Europe, the USA (New Jersey and Florida), the Middle East, Greece, Latin America and Africa.

The company's core technology is patent-protected citrus processing: proprietary methods for orange puree and orange pomace production, NFC (Not From Concentrate) bottling within 24 hours of harvest, and tailor-made blending solutions with fruit content adjustable from 10% to 95%. Operational stack includes GPS-based crop traceability, aseptic filling lines, and a broad certification portfolio — HACCP, ISO 22000, ISO 9001, Bio, Kosher, BRC, Halal and AIJN full membership. Retail-facing output is sold under Spartis (NFC juices and orangeade/lemonade), Laconic Gardens (organic premium) and I AM SPARTAN (gourmet organic products from Sparta-Laconia).

Biofresh generates revenue through two parallel streams: (1) B2B industrial sales of NFC juice, Comminute concentrates (4:1, 3:1, 2:1), patent-protected orange puree and pomace, and custom tailor-made compounds to food and beverage manufacturers; and (2) retail consumer products distributed via exclusive agreements, particularly for the Laconic Gardens and I AM SPARTAN brands. Products are exported to more than 51 countries spanning the EU, USA, Middle East, Far East, Russia, CIS countries and Africa. Pricing is quote-based for B2B custom formulations; retail pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held, founder/affiliate-controlled, with no institutional investors or public listing.
