The name Mereté comes from the blending of two Greek works: Meraki (may-rah-kee) and Areté (ahr-i-tey). Meraki means to do something with passion, love, creativity to put something of yourself into what you are creating. Areté describes the notion of excellence and the tireless pursuit of one's full potential. Combining these two concepts into the word Mereté is a statement about who the company is and what it aspires to be.
