About Us




Latin Deli was founded in September 2005 by Ben Ayala,

a Venezuelan immigrant and entrepreneur, with a great passion for Latin food who became a pioneer importer of Latin products in Australia and New Zealand. Ben Ayala's initial intention was to supply traditional products to the growing Latin community in Australia who felt nostalgic about their homeland.




However, over time he recognized that the Latin cuisine was welcome among different cultures that lived in the country. So, Latin Deli began to grow and increase its product catalog importing products from many Latin-American countries.




Thanks to the excellent leadership, and a professional and committed team, Latin Deli is today’s the largest importer and distributor of Latin products in Australia.

Today, you can find our products in selected shops in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Cairns, Darwin, Tasmania and other areas around Australia and also in New Zealand, in cities like Auckland, Wellington, Queenstown, Christchurch, Raglan and Hamilton.
