“The upgrade of our Cash n’ Carry Warehouse store reflects our commitment to bringing customers the local and nationally branded products they need at a value, while maintaining our Aloha spirit,” said Steve Smith, Vice President of the store’s purchasing division.

The store has also begun to rollout a new company logo.  Reflecting traditional Maui roots and values, the friendly and easy-to-read logo shares the company’s philosophy- “Better Value for Your Ohana”.
