Asian Pantry Supply for Retail, Brands and Foodservice
Pacific86 imports noodles, sauces, oils, vinegars, coconut and seaweed for retail private label teams, emerging brands and multi-unit foodservice groups. Partner facilities in Asia make the products, and we hold stock in the US. You get a quote on your own pack and the specification before you commit.
The brands we supply can be found nationwide at:
Private Label, First Runs and Menu Development
Retail and Private Label Programs
You run a category review once or twice a year, and the supplier questionnaire arrives before the sample does. So the paperwork comes first here.
- We publish specifications, certificates of analysis and factory audit status.
- The private label program is built under your label.
- We hold stock in the United States, so you get a delivery date rather than a production slot.
- Start with sauces and pastes, coconut milk and cream or instant ramen, and see a published specification.
Emerging Brands and First Production Runs
If you are the founder and you are also the sourcing department, the first production run, the reformulation or the day you outgrow a small co-packer all land on your desk at once.
- The manufacturer selected for the product, and the specification worked out with you.
- The ingredient statement, allergen statement and nutrition panel in front of you before the packaging goes to print.
- If you arrive with a formulation of your own, say so: the process from brief to first production starts there.
- Rice noodles and oils and vinegars are the two places to look first. Send us the specification.
Foodservice and Menu Development
Your culinary team says yes to the noodle. Your supply chain team says yes to the pack, the consistency and whether it keeps coming.
- Noodles by format, dry, fresh, instant and protein, with the cut on the specification.
- Sauces and pastes in foodservice sizes, and coconut milk and cream for the curry pot.
- For multi-unit restaurant groups, commissaries and contract foodservice.
- Stock is held in the United States, so a menu launch waits on a delivery date, not on a production run.
If That Is Not You
We are not the right supplier for consumers or home cooks, for single-location restaurants, or for companies outside Asian food. If you run one restaurant, your distributor or a cash-and-carry will serve you better than we can, and we would rather say so now than after the sample. Manufacturers who want to work with us: use the same form and say so.
The Process Behind Every Product
Source
We start with manufacturers we know, close to production. No broker or trading company sits between you and the manufacturing floor.
Customize
You set the recipe, the format and the pack. We match it to a factory that already runs it and hold it to your written spec.
Import
We arrange the freight and the customs clearance and handle the import, and we hold stock in the US, so you get a delivery date.
