About Us

After nearly 30 years in the Asian food business, the Tran’s family is a local icon in Perth’s Asian and business community.

Like many migrant enterprises, the company had its origins in the humble beginnings of a small family store. Mr. Tran senior was a respected businessman in his home country, he and his family fled the Vietnam war as refugees. They started off a small shop in Northbridge selling Asian produce – one of the very first Asian gourmet shops of its kind in Perth.

The corner store on Palmerston street in Northbridge quickly became a favourite with the locals, who crowded its narrow aisles in search of exotic tastes.

Mr. Tran, his wife, their ten children and families worked tirelessly and within a decade the Trans had built Tran’s into a multi-million dollar industry leader – importing, retailing and wholesaling Asian produce throughout WA.

In 1996, Trans Asian won the WA Ethnic Business of the Year Award.

Today, the Tran’s family operates several retail outlets throughout Perth including Leederville and Northbridge. Its Newcastle Street wholesale supermarket servicing both wholesale and retail customers.

Tran’s continues to take great pride in being a family-owned and run business with the next generation of Trans taking the company into a new business era. The Tran family is also an active participant in the local community, proudly contributing to and taking part in local events.

And yes the corner street Palmerston store which started it off is still there as crowded as ever, with Tran family members continuing the tradition of providing quality service and value.
