Restaurants, QSR chains, and catering companies select tortillas based on portion size and dish type. This guide covers the most common sizes used by foodservice distributors.

Industry-standard pack counts differ by size and channel. The table below shows the B2B foodservice and distributor pack formats used across the product range:
| Size | Inch | Weight | B2B Pack Count | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 cm | 4" | 15 g | 30 pcs | Mini taco / street food |

- Taco restaurants and taquerias

Mid-size tortillas are widely used for sandwich wraps and food-to-go concepts. Typical uses include:
- Chicken and vegetable wraps

Choosing the Right Size for Your Distribution Programme
Food distributors often import multiple tortilla sizes to serve different restaurant segments. Mixed pallet options allow importers to test several SKUs within a single container shipment, reducing upfront commitment while expanding product range. A single 40-foot container can hold up to 1.2 million tortillas — making it practical to combine sizes across the same shipment.
Conclusion
Understanding tortilla size formats helps foodservice buyers design menus efficiently and optimise food preparation operations. A supplier offering multiple sizes with B2B-aligned pack counts and mixed pallet options provides maximum flexibility for building a scalable import programme.
