Bondi Produce: Distributing since 1976

Discover Bondi Produce

For restaurants, Bondi Produce is a great company to work with to get more local food on your menu. Read on for a bit of their story.

The Story of Bondi Produce

In 1976, Ignazio Bondi immigrated to Canada and, after trying several jobs out, headed down to the Toronto Food Terminal to stock up on fruits and veggies that he then delivered across Toronto, knocking on doors at some of the city’s many restaurants.

This was the start of something bigger.

By 1990, the business was handed down to Ignazio’s son, Gus, who began carving out the business as a great local food distributor who offered fair prices. He also began sourcing potatoes, onions and root vegetables all from local, Ontario farms.

The business only grew from there, forging more relationships with local suppliers as well as some from abroad. By 2014 they were in a 40,000-square-foot facility in Toronto- woah! These are no small potatoes (pun intended).

They also deliver 7 days a week from their delivery centre in Toronto with over 50 trucks going across the province. Now that’s service!

Finally, Bondi is transparent. While not all their suppliers are in Ontario, you can see where everything comes from. In fact, check out the list of their partners on their website.
