It’s Official! Kona Branch Celebrates New Location with a Grand Opening Pau Hana

8/7/2025

Big mahalo to everyone who joined us for the grand opening of our new Kona branch on Friday, July 25.

It was an unforgettable evening filled with our valued customers and community, music, and celebration. We were honored to be joined by Mayor Alameda, along with representatives from our valued OEM partners, Kubota, Komatsu, Sakai, NPK, and JLG, who helped us mark this exciting new chapter.

We also extend our sincere appreciation to our valued customer, Isemoto Contracting, for bringing along their impressive Komatsu WA600 wheel loader and Komatsu D71i dozer for display. Following a blessing of the new facility, guests enjoyed delicious bites and sipped local-inspired cocktails catered by The Temple Bar, live music from the always-amazing Vaughn Valentino, a mesmerizing fire dance performance by Oahi Entertainment, and prize draws throughout the evening.

Mahalo for helping us celebrate in true island style — we’re excited to serve the Kona community for many years to come from our new, expanded location at 74-5524 Kaiwi St in Kailua-Kona.
