Costa’s began its journey by exporting spices of the orient, flavours evocative of the exotic east, to Portugal and its colonies in far flung recesses of the globe. The spice trade soon grew to encompass the export of an ubiquitous fruit that made its indelible mark on discerning palates. The mango in fact is not indigenous to India. The Portuguese imported strains into India from Brazil when they noticed the climatic similarities in the two countries. Costa’s began exporting the fruit, playing a crucial role in Alphonso’s popularity the world over. Today more than a hundred years forward, it is considered to be one of the tastiest fruits in the world.

From Spices and fruits, Costa’s began to diversify early in the century into packaging canned foods and notably fish products which Goa is so well-known for. Frozen foods have also become a popular segment of Costa’s range. Goan specialty sweets like Dodol and Bebinca, which soon followed suit, are the first of its kind to be commercially produced and packaged by Costa’s in India and relished the world over. From putting Goan cuisine on the world map to becoming Goa’s largest food processing company, Costa’s have been pioneers in this field. Constantly on the lookout for new products and processes to upgrade the same, our range is today a veritable culinary smorgasbord.
