Korres began in Athens, in Greece's oldest homeopathic pharmacy, where pharmacist George Korres made his first herbal remedies and creams. Word of mouth about those products led him to found the brand in 1996, and its first product, the Wild Rose 24-Hour Cream, is still a best-seller. Led by founders George and Lena Korres, the company works with Greek organic farmers, extracts and formulates its natural ingredients in-house, and states the natural content of every product. Korres products are made in Greece and sold in 50 countries.
