Kalas is Greece's most iconic salt brand, recognized primarily for its classic blue and white cylindrical packaging. It was the first brand in Greece to introduce the process of iodizing salt, significantly contributing to public health by addressing iodine deficiency in the local population. The product is sourced from the salt pans of Messolonghi, which are renowned for their high-quality mineral extraction.

The brand is manufactured and distributed by the Kalas Group (formerly known as V. Karageorgiou & Sons). Over the decades, the company has expanded from a local salt producer into a major food enterprise, exporting its products to more than 20 countries worldwide. It remains a Greek-owned entity, maintaining its headquarters and production facilities within Greece, ensuring that its legacy as the 'Greek Salt' remains intact as it moves through the 2020s.
