In 1957, Augusto Bosa opened the first Bosa Foods store in Vancouver, pledging to continue importing traditional Italian specialty food products to a growing Italian community. Bosa Foods stays true to the work of Augusto Bosa today, servicing a larger demographic, but committed to the same purpose – to bring true Italian cuisine to your table.
Bosa Foods is located at 1465 Kootenay Street, just off Boundary Road and 1st Avenue in Vancouver. The store is open Monday to Thursday 8:00am - 5:30pm, Friday 8:00am - 6:30pm, Saturday 8:00am - 5:30pm.
