It's a little on the pricey side... but I haven't been to another restaurant equipment store so can't really say for sure just comparing to the commercial restaurant pots from Sam's club. They only had a few selection of the things I came in for but ended up getting other things that I forgot I needed as well. Some things didn't have a price label which I felt was inconsistent through out the store... but it's fine. The cashier was friendly and even gave me 10% off my first purchase! Overall a nice warehouse of things for your restaurant business!

You can find some local products and gourmet food supplies that you may not be able to find at other places. You will find frozen products and produce in the chiller and containers, utensils & plastic bags and other restaurant supplies. Sometimes they have specials going on and gourmet items that you will need to make your dish a stand out. It great to browse around and see what they have. They have free memberships for Ohana and business memberships. For businesses, can enter 2 hour prior from regular memberships. Although they may not turn away paying customers if they happened to show up early. There's enough free parking available. Recently forgot something in my cart and I took a chance to call if anyone turned it in. Yay, they had it on their log and so grateful. The chef zone's red roof can be seen from afar! It's located at Ualena street and close to Lagoon Drive! Sign up and your card will be ready when the next time you visit again.

This company has never let me down in terms of inventory and what its able to provide. Thats because the owner, Trigo, is well connected and has a bevy of resources. One of the biggest inventories in used or refurbished restaurant equipment on the island, I believe, and it also brings in some new stuff from time to time. Trigo is personable and most of all very honest and strives to make sure his customers are happy. Trigo is very helpful with answering questions and really knows his stuff. If you aren't happy neither is he. Id recommend REI for any restaurant business on the island looking to improve.

I'm so happy when I called Island Marketing (IM) and it was open today and allows walk ins. There is a parking lot right in front of its business. Easy access and as you enter IM, there is a compact front showcase section that shows much of what IM carries for wholesale and retail. So many choices here! I met Eric, one of the two owners, who work tirelessly here. It's amazing how much inventory is carried in this business. You may browse around at the variety of boxes, gift bags, baking supplies, ribbons, business stickers and so much more here! Please enjoy the pictures to have a better idea of what is offered here. Prices appear reasonable, with bulk and wholesale discounts available. Support local

Last Christmas I used all of my supply of cellophane bags that I used to bag the cookies in. The supplier I used to buy my bags no longer exist. Boo hoo. As you can see, I was in desperate need of finding another supplier. One day when I was checking out my friend Nadine's activity I came across...ISLANDS MARKETING. When I read her review, it was exactly what I was looking for. Yay, I was so happy to hear about this supplier. Finally, I had a day off during the week so I took a ride to Kalihi to check them out. I was blown away the moment I stepped foot into the tiny storefront.! I am a sucker for gift bags, cellophane bags, cute food boxes, containers and packaging supplies. This is the place to come. The prices are reasonable too! Eric the owner was very friendly and helpful. He showed me different types of cellophane bags for my cookies. He recommended that I buy the lip and tape bags to keep my cookies fresh longer. I bought a pack of 100 lip and tape bags as well as other cellophane bags for other purposes. I will definitely be back for more! If you are looking for packaging supplies that are cute and purposeful, come check out ISLANDS MARKETING in Kalihi. You'll thank me for that!

I haven't tried their hot and ready foods, but the foods that we get to cook with are top notch in quality and value. Hubs is one of those guys who will drive the cart and add what he sees and wants to try, so when I just need one or two things, I leave him home. What can I say, sometimes willy nilly shopping can get expensive! The staff are all friendly and helpful and they have spotlighted areas in Japan which rotate regularly. If you want to know what area they are spotlighting, I suggest getting on the digital mailer so you can see the sales and specials. If you are a fan of wagyu and kurobota pork, this is your spot. When I make sweet and sour spare ribs, this is the only place that I can find the ribs cut long way (makes for more meat and easier eating). If you are a fan of hot pot, they have soups ready to go. They also have veggies and noodles premade and all the cuts of meat for that shabu shabu experience. The construction on the rail makes the entrance a little tricky depending on what side of the island you are coming from, just know there is a back entrance behind the gas station.
