Award for Sustainability & Resilience Innovation

MILLS OF CRETE were distinguished at the “Innovative Entrepreneurship Awards 2025” of the Innovation Business Observatory (IBO) of the Region of Crete, receiving the Award for Sustainability & Resilience Innovation—an honorary distinction that recognizes organizations that develop and implement innovative sustainability processes with a substantial positive impact on society and the environment.

This award category honors an organization that has successfully identified and developed an innovative sustainability process, contributing to:

  • the improvement of social quality of life,

  • the protection of the ecosystem,

  • and the preservation of natural resources for future generations.

Sustainability innovation encompasses practices, processes, and systems that generate significant positive externalities and a distinct beneficial footprint on society and the natural environment.

This recognition further reinforces the strategic direction of the MILLS OF CRETE toward responsible production, sustainable development, and innovation grounded in scientific knowledge and local value. Deeply connected to the region and to the needs of producers and consumers, the MILLS OF CRETE continue to invest in practices that promote circular economy principles, reduce environmental impact, and strengthen social cohesion.

MILLS OF CRETE warmly thank the Region of Crete and the Innovation Business Observatory for this honorary distinction and reaffirm their commitment to continue advancing innovation, sustainability, and meaningful contribution to society and the environment.
