About Us

The idea for Providore 24 was formed in 2004 from the love of a humble Tasmanian made tomato and red pepper chutney and a Tassie Sauvignon Blanc. 

Patricia knew she needed to share the magic of these flavours and other amazing Tasmanian produce with others. She sampled and gathered as much Tasmanian made produce as she could find with the dream of showcasing it all in one place – Stanley, Tasmania. 

Patricia converted the front room of her 1830’s, renovators delight, weatherboard home on the main street of Stanley into an old fashioned store, and so became Providore 24. 

This little store would provide Patricia the opportunity to present Tasmania’s best wares and tell the stories of ordinary Tasmanians turning a simple tomato into a delicious relish, apricots into amazing jam and cool climate grapes into magnificent wines.

Providore 24 has grown over the years from one room into three and a commercial kitchen. Patricia and her friendly staff welcome locals and visitors from around the world to the shop seven days a week.

Patricia’s passion for Tasmanian produce is unwavering and she continues her research into the latest Tasmanian created products. She is still constantly amazed by the incredible quality and variety being produced in Tasmania and she still loves to tell the stories of the producers and share their produce with the visitors to her shop.
