A wholesale supplier built around what Portugal's Asian kitchens and shops actually need
Started because sourcing shouldn't be this hard
Across Portugal, Asian and Bangladeshi grocers, restaurants and takeaways have long had to work around the same problem: the products their customers ask for are difficult to get reliably. Frozen hilsha, satkora, fresh-frozen paratha, proper chinigura rice — these arrive irregularly, from too many different suppliers, or not at all.
Surma Foods was founded to close that gap. We built a catalogue around the lines Portuguese businesses genuinely struggle to source, invested in cold-chain storage and delivery, and set out to be the single supplier a shop or kitchen can call for both their freezer and their shelves.
We are a new company, and we’re deliberate about saying so. What we offer instead of a long trading history is range, cold-chain capability, and a team that answers the phone.
