THE PAMA GROUP

About

Pama was established on 7th July 1981. The original partnership was established by the Farshi family; father, mother and two sons, hence the name Pama standing for Pa and Ma. Pama started out as a retail operation, but having very quickly gained an understanding of the needs and requirements of the market, the company moved into wholesale, distribution and product development. Pama continues its tradition of innovation introducing many industry firsts including a range of exclusively designed products. Pama places importance on diversifying our product range. Today Pama now consists of two companies; Pama Wholesale and Pama Property Management.
