History

Established in 1948.

For nearly 60 years, C & K Importing Co. has been serving the Greek community. Sam Chrys opened the market in 1948 with intentions to bring the foods and wines of Greece to Los Angeles. C & K Importing Co. grew into a market where all ethnicities come to visit and always enjoy the purity of the product assortment. In 1968 Chrys Chrys purchased the business from his father to carry on the legacy. Chrys Chrys had an idea to open a Greek restaurant using all the fine ingredients already carried in the market. From that idea, Papa Cristo's was born! Shortly thereafter, Chrys's cousin, "Cousin Mark", also joined the business. C & K Importing Co. and Papa Cristo's Greek Grill are known as "Athens in L.A." Our reputation has grown past California, and now reaches the motherland itself, Greece! After 70 years, Chrys and "Cousin Mark", still carry on the family tradition. Same address, same phone number!
