Located in historic Kawaihae, near Pu’ukohola Heiau in South Kohala, Hamakua Macadamia Nut Company grows, processes, and markets 100% Hawai’i-grown macadamia nuts. This means that all macadamia nuts come from Hawai'i Island farms, including from orchards owned and managed by Hamakua Macadamia Nut Company and Edmud C. Olson Trust II subsidiaries. Receiving macadamia nuts from about 200 island farms of varying size, Hamakua Macadamia Nut Company works to improve the wellbeing of Hawai’i’s agricultural workers and their families while keeping Hawai’i green. It currently employs about 60 people full-time and is about to generate nearly all of its electricity via solar and biomass energy.
Part of the Edmund C. Olson Trust II, the company is dedicated to the thriving of Hawai’i into the future. The Trust is a private landowner invested in sustainable agriculture, managed natural-resource conservation and cultural legacy preservation, community development and renewable energy.
