ApiTerra is a Brooklyn, NY-based honey brand founded in 2015, specializing in pure, raw, unfiltered honey sourced from Eastern Europe. They offer a range of single-origin and superfood-infused honey blends, using a unique cold-whipping technology to preserve nutrients while creating a creamy texture. The company is committed to natural, non-GMO, OU Kosher, and gluten-free products and sells both retail and wholesale across the US.

The Beekeeper's Story

Started in 2015 by Dimitri Grigorovich, the son of a 2nd generation beekeeper from Belarus, ApiTerra was founded on a mission to bring the highest quality raw, unheated, unfiltered honey to the US market. Growing up, Grigorovich's father — who worked in the forestry department — mixed fresh honey with chopped cranberries, a tradition that became the core of what makes ApiTerra unique. As Grigorovich noted in a Forbes interview, his family relied on honey with berries as an everyday treat, and his father became one of ApiTerra's first honey suppliers. Since its early days as a small operation, ApiTerra has grown into a multi-channel brand selling wholesale to US bakeries, breweries, and large corporate cafeterias, as well as directly to consumers online. The company sources honey from the cleanest parts of Eastern Europe (including Belarus and Turkey) and has expanded its lineup to include superfood-infused honey blends and premium organic teas. ApiTerra is also a member of 1% for the Planet, reflecting its commitment to environmental stewardship.
