Our story · since 1983

Pure Italian flavours,
directly to your kitchen.

For 43 years, Nastasi Foods has been bringing a little piece of Italy closer to homes and businesses across the U.S. What began as a family business in 1983 has grown through generations, while staying true to the same passion for Italian food and personal service.

Our approach has always been simple: work closely with Italian producers, choose products we believe in, and offer the quality, value and reliability our customers expect. Every product we carry is selected with the goal of bringing the flavors and traditions of Italy closer to the people who appreciate them.

Today, the second generation continues that story — building lasting relationships with customers, discovering products worth sharing, and keeping the personal attention of a family-run business at the heart of Nastasi Foods.

Our journey

A story shaped by every milestone.

From our first steps in 1983 to the business Nastasi Foods is today, each chapter has carried the same purpose forward: sharing the flavors of Italy with more people, while staying true to the family values that started it all.

1983
The first container Woodbridge, New Jersey

The doors open in Woodbridge, stocked from the producers the family already knew back home around Sorrento.

The 90s
Our own trucks The route becomes ours

Deliveries come off third-party freight and onto our own fleet, so the route and the schedule are ours to promise.

The 2000s
Clearing our own customs In-house at the hub

Customs clearing moves in-house at the Woodbridge hub. One more step between the producer and the shelf, gone.

Today
The second generation Same family, same address

A second generation buying, a catalog that keeps growing, and the same personal attention the first generation started with.

What buyers say

★★★★★
The consistency is what keeps us here. The Gragnano pasta and San Marzano tomatoes arrive exactly the same, order after order — our chefs stopped worrying about substitutions.
Executive ChefRestaurant group · New Jersey
★★★★★
They actually pick up the phone. When a customer asks for a hard-to-find regional brand, Nastasi finds it and puts it on the next container.
Category BuyerRegional supermarket chain
★★★★★
For a specialty market, the imports Nastasi brings in are our edge — the items the big distributors just don't carry.
