For all you carnivores that enjoy a great eating piece of meat and don’t mind sharing with friends and family, we have just the product for you. Be one of the first to try the 1.5kg Australian Black Angus & Wagyu cross, “Tomahawk” Bone-in Ribeye Steak – currently being introduced to restaurants across HK, for those brave enough to attempt it!

Due to this cut of beef being bone-in and cut from the ribeye, with a little aging this steak will be one of the most flavoursome and juicy steaks you will ever taste. Being a cross breed of Black Angus and Wagyu you also get perfect marbling to intesify the flavour as the intramuscular marbling melts throughout the steak during cooking giving a delicate and buttery flavour throughout.

There is increasing demand for Western food products across Asia, with particular interest being shown in the Chinese and Vietnamese markets.
Products such as cheese, coffee, red wine, cured hams & salami, along with olive oils, olives, pizza, pasta and premium beef, lamb & seafood, are all in demand as incomes and affluence rise across Asia’s developing regions. While all these items are available today in most major cities, these products will continue to spread across the population and as one group of consumers are just being introduced to these foods, other consumers more familiar with these items, are demanding higher quality and more diverse ranges of specialty cheese, better quality wines and coffee blends, country and even region specific examples of cured hams, salami, beef & lamb, as well as an ever increasing range of unique specialty foods from across the globe.

We are delighted to be partnered with one of Italy’s premier smallgoods suppliers, allowing us and our customers to select not only from a wide array of some of Italy’s best cured hams, word famous cheese and salami’s, but this relationship also allows us access to the gourmet delights from France, Switzerland, Germany and a number of selected countries across Europe.

What this means for quality food buyers in Asia is a unique one-stop product sourcing and delivery solution, which allows importers and distributors across Hong Kong and South-East Asia to consolidate a wide range of world renown specialty food items while taking advantage of lower logistic and handling costs.
