OUR PEOPLE

The Kekkou family is represented by three generations. Grandmother, Panayiota Antonis Kekkou (Patricia) learnt these recipes from her mother and elders in Cyprus. She has been making cheese since she was about eight years old.

 

Patricia’s son, Pantelis Antonis Kekkou (Patrick) founded the Pandelyssi business. He named the company Pandelyssi to acknowledge his family name Pande and his ancestral village of lyssi.

Patrick is supported by his wife Andrea and their son Antonis Kekkou (Anthony), in day-to-day operations. Pandelyssi is a family – owned and operated enterprise with a passion for creating gourmet, traditional cheeses.
