The Director of Gourmand Providore, Abboud Jraij, has had a passion for fruit and vegetables for over 20 years, having owned numerous fresh food outlets in the Sydney Metropolitan Area. These outlets were renowned for excellent customer service and quality seasonal produce.

Having established his credentials and infrastructure, a natural extension was formation of a composite business model and Gourmand Providore was formed in 1990 to provide clients with a complete solution to their fruit and vegetable needs.

Today, Gourmand Providore operates through a new warehouse located in
Sydney Markets that features state of the art cool room and cool storage facilities. Abboud has enhanced the business to ensure that his team is widely recognised as one of the market leaders in the fruit and vegetable industry.

Developing and maintaining close relationships with clients from the loading dock through to the kitchen is one of the main goals at Gourmand Providore. While the company continues to grow at a steady rate, access to management personnel is still assured at all times, as well as competitive pricing that entails no compromise on quality.

Gourmand Providore’s customers range from Government institutions, clubs, hotels and retirement villages to smaller hospitality outlets such as restaurants and cafés. All staff are trained to assist with menu and planning needs, ensuring that customers have continual access to seasonal produce, as it becomes available.
