Pares Polynesian Market, established in the 1960s, is Utah's oldest and largest family-owned Polynesian store. It offers a wide variety of products including New Zealand meats, butter, canned goods, fresh imported produce, snacks, housewares, and gifts. Known for its commitment to community, Pares provides authentic Polynesian food and cultural items, consistently stocking fresh and safe products. Customers appreciate the fully stocked shelves and pleasant checkout experiences, often wishing they had more time to explore the unique offerings. As a woman-owned single location, Pares is not affiliated with any other Polynesian store in Utah, proudly serving its community with a taste of the islands.
They stock things we aren't able to find locally. Always love going.

I really like this place. Having lived in New Zealand for 8+ years, they carry a bit of the stuff I miss. Weetbix, Watties spaghetti, Milo, Watties sauce, Tim Tams, and Cadbury Crunchie Bars. I wish they had more biscuit options and chutney's but Im not complaining!
