ECOS Partners With ‘My Big Fat Greek Wedding’ film franchise Screenwriter, Director & Star Nia Vardalos for New National Commercial Campaign
World Premiere of Spot on Earth Day Celebrates Brand’s Greek Roots and High-Performance Sustainable Cleaning
CYPRESS, Calif., April 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ECOS, the family-owned pioneer in green cleaning products and maker of the #1 selling green laundry detergent in the US, today announced the launch of its latest commercial campaign featuring award-winning filmmaker Nia Vardalos, the screenwriter and star of the My Big Fat Greek Wedding film franchise. Timed to launch on Earth Day, the campaign highlights ECOS’s mission to deliver high-performance cleaning solutions that are safer for people and the planet, while also nodding to the brand’s Greek roots.
The commercial was created by My Big Fat Greek Wedding‘s Nia Vardalos and Lyricist Spiros Katsaganis, directed and music supervised by Spiros Katsaganis, and filmed by Cinematographer and Producer Petros Antoniadis. The spot features Vardalos making her way through airport security, her suitcase packed with a collection of Greek favorites. When a TSA agent notices her bag, specifically her ECOS Liquid Laundry Detergent, she begins walking him through what sets the detergent apart, ultimately culminating in a moment where the agent “confiscates” the detergent for himself, eager to try his new sustainable laundry favorite. After chasing him around the airport, Nia ultimately boards the plane and is able to get her detergent back on her flight home.
The campaign officially debuts across digital and social platforms on April 22nd, further amplifying ECOS’s broader efforts to educate consumers on eco-conscious product choices and highlight the benefits of thoughtfully formulated cleaning solutions.

“Earth Day is always a tentpole moment for ECOS, and it’s an opportunity for us to connect with a broad and diverse audience around the importance of safer, more sustainable living,” said Kelly Vlahakis-Hanks, President and CEO of ECOS. “Nia Vardalos has a unique ability to touch the hearts of many, transcend cultural boundaries, and bring people together through her storytelling. Partnering with Nia for this commercial allows us to bring our mission to life in a way that resonates widely with our consumers – while also celebrating Greek heritage in a meaningful way.”
“I love and use ECOS products! The chance to create a campaign with a brand I admire is truly thrilling. I very much appreciate ECOS’s Greek heritage and its strong company values. The legacy in ECOS resonates with me, both personally and culturally. ECOS has consistently stood out for its commitment to creating products that are better for people and the planet. I’m thrilled to partner with a family-owned brand that’s been doing good for the planet for decades.”
