Korres Japanese Rose Body Butter

Korres is a renowned Greek skincare brand founded in 1996 by pharmacist George Korres and chemical engineer Lena Korres. The brand emerged from the oldest homeopathic pharmacy in Athens, focusing on natural ingredients and traditional Greek remedies. The Japanese Rose Body Butter is a signature product, widely recognized for its high natural content and floral aroma.

Manufacturing for Korres products primarily takes place in Greece, where the company maintains its own production facilities and laboratory. This allows them to maintain strict quality control and utilize local Greek flora.

In terms of ownership, while the founders remain deeply involved, a majority stake in the company was acquired in 2017 by Morgan Stanley Tactical Value and the Chinese distribution firm Profex Inc. Profex handles the brand's intensive expansion in the Asian market, while the global headquarters and creative direction remain firmly rooted in Greece.
