FORGET THOSE pre-packed Greek yogurt containers crowding the dairy case and show some love for Ellenos Real Greek Yogurt — the overseas-turned-local company that locals adore.
Sweet, tangy, dreamy, creamy, Ellenos is spooned out — with a free taste, first! — at a growing number of Seattle-area farmers markets, supermarket kiosks and corporate cafeterias, such as Starbucks, Nordstrom and the Gates Foundation. It’s tucked into small tubs and trucked to Tully’s coffee shops, to lucky ZIP codes via Amazon Fresh and flown overnight nationwide via www.ellenos.com.
Not bad for a company that sold its first day’s receipts — $1,200 — only a year ago.
