Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 239 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the extremely wide selection of oriental food and Asian groceries, very affordable prices, and exceptionally prompt delivery times across various regions. Consumers note that items arrive securely packaged with proper protective materials, and delicate fresh produce is wonderfully well preserved upon safe arrival. Some reviewers were not happy with the relatively high shipping costs associated with ordering frozen goods that require additional special packaging and ice packs. A few other people also felt that external courier handling occasionally led to damaged packages or unfortunate delivery complications in certain residential areas.

I purchased the wrong product and thought I’d left it too late to cancel. They couldn’t have been more helpful and responsive. No quibbles, no questions, no persuading me to buy something else instead... See more

Company details

  1. Asian Grocery Shop

Written by the company

Tradewinds Oriental Shop is a family run business specialising in providing the finest food and drinks, furniture, and kitchenware from Asia. Established in 1984, we first commenced trading at our local market in Scunthorpe selling a small selection of basic Chinese cooking ingredients and a variety of Oriental Arts and Crafts. After 2 years there was sufficient demand to open a small shop on Mary Street, Scunthorpe. Demand soon dictated a move to larger premises and in 1991 we moved to our current premises on Cole Street, Scunthorpe. Tradewinds Oriental Shop has continued to grow and in 2008 we launched our online website offering consumers within the UK and Europe the opportunity to purchase our products at the click of a button. Demand for Asian food and drink has continued to grow in popularity over the years which have led to the expansion of our current shop and warehouse premises in recent years. We now stock over 5000 products from across Asia. Our inventory will continue to grow with new lines becoming available both online and in our shop on a weekly basis. We remain passionate and great effort goes into sourcing and finding the best authentic ingredients and providing these to all our customers within the UK and around the World.

fragmented noodels

Large order of noodels, they arrived smashed and destroyed despite I wrote a message asking for the shop to mark as fragile and protected. No protection, no care, and the delivery is very expensive for being treated as a sack of potatos. I do not recommend them at all, everytime is the same, they do not know anything about customer service. All these reviews must be fake. I bought from them during Covid and it was exactly the same disaster. The reviews must be fake honestly, do not trsut them unless you are buying rice. Anything which can broke, IT WILL BREAK.

A customer of Tradewinds…

I have been a customer of Tradewinds for many years. I love the kikkoman Soy Sauce and buy it in the 1.5 litre container each time.

Tradewinds have a comprehensive range of oriental foods at reasonable prices.

I highly recommend this food outlet.

Absolutely amazing service from Tradewinds Oriental Shop! The team are so kind, helpful and clearly very hardworking. I placed my order online yesterday and couldn’t believe it arrived the very next day — incredibly fast delivery! 📦✨

Everything was beautifully and carefully packed, and all the products arrived in perfect condition. The prices are amazing too, with such a huge choice of healthy, interesting and hard-to-find products. There is honestly so much to choose from that I already want to place another order! Fantastic value, excellent service and a wonderful selection. I’m extremely happy with my experience and would highly recommend Tradewinds Oriental Shop. I will definitely be ordering again! ❤️👏

They deliver to Bristol for someone with similar name while our address is in Bath. Their mailbox is not monitored and response was slow.

Ridiculous company. Stay out and stay out their courier DPD

Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience.

We have checked the DPD tracking information for your order and can confirm that the parcel was delivered to the delivery address provided in Bath. The tracking does not show the parcel as having been delivered to Bristol.

We appreciate that there may have been some confusion regarding the delivery, and we’re sorry if our response was slower than expected. However, we wanted to clarify the delivery details for anyone reading this review.

If there is still an issue with the parcel received at the Bath address, please contact us and we will be happy to investigate further.
