Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is HS Code 19023010?
HS Code 19023010 covers dried, prepared pasta that is not stuffed. This includes spaghetti, macaroni, fusilli, penne, linguine and similar products made from durum wheat or other cereals. It excludes fresh pasta, stuffed pasta (ravioli, tortellini) and instant noodles which fall under different HS codes.
Who are the largest pasta importers in the UK?
Major supermarket chains including Sainsbury's, Costco and Tesco are among the largest importers by volume. Bestway (Holdings) is the largest cash & carry wholesaler. Specialist importers like Community Foods, East End Foods and JFC (UK) handle significant volumes of specialty and ethnic pasta products.
Which countries supply pasta to the UK?
Italy is the dominant supplier of premium dried pasta. Turkey is a major source of affordable pasta products. China, Thailand and other Asian countries supply noodle-type products. Israel (Osem) supplies kosher and specialty pasta. Multiple EU countries also export pasta to the UK market.
What is the role of cash & carry wholesalers in pasta distribution?
Cash & carry wholesalers like Bestway, Wing Yip, Everest and Duc Tien serve as intermediaries between importers/manufacturers and small independent retailers, restaurants and foodservice businesses. They purchase in bulk and redistribute in smaller quantities, playing a vital role in the UK food supply chain.
How has Brexit affected UK pasta imports?
Post-Brexit, UK pasta importers face additional customs documentation and potential tariffs when sourcing from EU countries. This has increased compliance costs and led some importers to diversify supply sources beyond the EU. However, pasta remains an essential staple and import volumes have remained strong.
