Rising food costs have made weekly supermarket runs stressful for households across Kingston, St. Catherine, Clarendon, and the wider island. Basic staples like rice, cooking oil, flour, and canned goods seem to increase in price every few weeks.

To help families fight inflation—and give Jamaicans abroad a reliable, transparent way to support family back home—HowJamaica has launched the Basic Essentials Food Bundle for just $6,500 JMD on our official online store.


What Is Inside the $6,500 JMD Essentials Bundle?

We selected high-demand, non-perishable kitchen staples that form the backbone of everyday Jamaican home cooking. Every package includes:

  • White / Parboiled Rice (5 lb) – High-grade grain staple for daily meals.
  • Counter Flour (5 lb) – Essential for dumplings, fried bakes, and gravy thickening.
  • Pure Vegetable Cooking Oil (1 Liter) – Clean oil for frying and sautéing.
  • Brown Sugar (2 lb) – Local Jamaican cane sugar for tea, lemonade, and porridge.
  • Grace Mackerel in Tomato Sauce (425g x 2 cans) – Classic island protein source.
  • Grace Sardines (106g x 3 cans) – Quick, nutritious breakfast and lunch option.
  • Corned Beef (340g x 1 can) – Top-quality canned beef for quick stir-fry meals.
  • Excelsior Water Crackers (1 Toughlines Pack) – The ultimate accompaniment for cheese and tea.
  • Maggi Noodle Soups (Cock Soup & Pumpkin Spice x 4 packs) – Fast soup base for quick lunches.
  • Table Salt & All-Purpose Seasoning (1 bottle each) – Kitchen essentials.

Why Order Online via HowJamaica Store?

1. Transparent Pricing & Zero Remittance FX Loss

When relatives abroad send money via traditional transfer agencies, receivers lose money on high transfer fees and poor exchange rate margins. Buying the bundle directly online locks in a fixed $6,500 JMD price ($42 USD equivalent) with zero surprise fees.

2. Doorstep Delivery Across Key Parishes

No waiting in long supermarket checkout lines or paying expensive taxi fares to carry heavy grocery bags home. We deliver directly to residential addresses in Kingston, St. Andrew, Portmore, Spanish Town, May Pen, and Mandeville.

3. Guaranteed Authentic Quality

We partner directly with established Jamaican wholesalers to source fresh stock, avoiding expired or low-quality store products.
