Welcome to Pagasa Asian Food Imports
Pagasa Asian Food Imports focuses on becoming the premier Southeast Asian food wholesale supplier for the industry.
For more than 30 years, we’ve built and nurtured our connections to the top suppliers in the Philippines and have a unique understanding of the cultural nuances and food trends that are important to our clients.
Our warehouse was established in 1995 at 32 Binney Road Kings Park NSW. In 2002, we built an extension that increased our dry goods storage capacity to 700 pallets. In addition, we also constructed a 144-pallet cold storage facility for our frozen products.
