When chefs search for “wholesale pasta near me”, they’re not just looking for bulk pasta. They’re looking for a product that saves time, delivers flavour, and performs consistently in a fast-paced kitchen. VEDE Pasta was built with this exact purpose in mind. Based in Brisbane and distributed through MOCO Food Services, VEDE supplies wholesale fresh pasta that balances authenticity with reliability.
The Challenge With Wholesale Pasta in Australia
For years, most wholesale pasta available to Australian chefs has been limited to two categories: dried imports or small-batch fresh suppliers. Dried pasta is cheap and long-lasting but lacks the texture and flavour diners expect from premium dishes. On the other hand, local fresh pasta often comes with a 3–5 day shelf life, meaning chefs are forced to use product quickly or risk waste.
This has created a gap in the market: pasta that is truly fresh, high-quality, and able to fit into the real working life of a professional kitchen. VEDE Pasta exists to fill that gap.
Wholesale Fresh Pasta, Made With 100% Semolina
At VEDE, we are a 100% semolina pasta company. That means every shape is made from premium Australian durum semolina — the same golden grain trusted in Italy’s finest pastas. Semolina gives pasta its strength, its clean flavour, and the proper bite that stands up during service.
Unlike many suppliers who dilute their dough with soft flours, VEDE keeps it pure. This ensures chefs get pasta that is reliable on the plate and flexible across a wide range of sauces and toppings. Whether it’s a seafood linguine or a classic spaghetti ragù, semolina is the foundation of quality.
Our Signature Difference: Sourdough Long Shapes
What makes VEDE unique is the sourdough fermentation step we use for our long pasta. Instead of stopping at flour and water, we add a natural fermentation process. This strengthens the gluten structure, improves hydration, and builds a more complex aroma and flavour.
As a result, VEDE’s spaghetti, linguine, mafaldine, pappardelle, and fettuccine are not only durable in service but also deliver a subtle depth that chefs and diners can taste. It’s the kind of small detail that turns a pasta dish into a standout menu item.
Authentic Southern Italian Short Shapes
Alongside our long shapes, VEDE produces a range of stretched Southern Italian pasta shapes that are rarely available at wholesale scale in Australia. Using a custom-built machine inspired by hand-shaping methods, we stretch — not extrude — shapes such as orecchiette, cavatelli, fogliette de ulivo, strascinate nero, and strozzaprete.
This stretching method creates pasta with a silky interior and a sauce-gripping exterior, giving each shape its own personality. Diners recognise the difference immediately, and chefs gain the opportunity to build menus with true regional authenticity.
The Frozen Fresh Advantage
Fresh pasta is at its best the moment it is shaped. That’s why VEDE uses IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) technology to lock in freshness within minutes of production. Each portion is frozen separately, preventing clumping and keeping hydration intact.
For chefs, this means pasta that can be cooked straight from frozen in just minutes, with consistent results every time. It also means no spoilage, no waste, and up to 18 months of shelf life. Compared to the stress of juggling 3-day fresh deliveries, frozen fresh is a game-changer.
And when chefs tell their diners they are eating fresh pasta, they can say it with confidence — because VEDE pasta was frozen at its absolute peak.
