    Need to shop some snacks to munch for with friends & family? Well, this shop is your go-to. Most goodies they got are beloved Hawaiian favorites & with an affordable price and selection you'll simply love this place. I am really in the mood to munch for some sunflower seeds and was able to grab a pack and a pack of jelly bar. Now, not only my cravings are satisfied my belly is on cloud nine too. The staffs are nice and were helpful. Their shop is clean as well. I left the place satisfied. Definitely gonna come back here.

    Though I've been here before, this was my 1st time shopping here. I visited their store by Aiea last year and shopped there before coming here a few days later. After spending a few hours at the KCC farmers market in early February, we stopped here in Kahala for our next stop. Though I still mainly buy snack gifts from that seed store in Ka'aako, recent gifts from local friends have steered me here mainly to get Huff 'N Puffs (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=l8Nwt2Sk-QXo99vdJmYdlw&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q). I found them in the middle island shelf as browsed the walls. I found a few other items to try under their brand (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ccReAYDjrqylbUL3fmVnjw&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) as well as some Asian brand candies and snacks. When I reached the cashier, there were a couple of people ahead of me but the wait was short. Buying a number of items, more than I anticipated, I opted to buy one of their logoed bags that I could use when gifting items that I brought home. Size wise, it isn't as large as the other one that I visited last year but it seemed to have the same full selection. Will stop here next time on the islands to get more of the Huff 'N Puffs.

    Chips, snack and all your cravings are found right here!! Need a gift for graduation, birthday or any occasion you can find it all here at Wholesale Unlimited Express. I remember the days when I had to make that drive to Mapunapuna and park in the tiny lot to get my fix and am glad to find them here at my convenience. Sometimes I have no clue what I need I just browse around for a minute and all their neatly displayed items just come to my vision for ideas. You can find everything from yummies, kakimochi, cookies and more! This location is in Kuono Marketplace which is right across from Kahala Mall with lots of parking the staff here is always so helpful and friendly it's so easy to get what I need and just like that I was done woohoo! Thank you!

    Shopping for snacks in Kahala, Honolulu, Hawaii... My friend, Lisa S., wanted some gifts to bring home to Los Angeles. The closest Wholesale Unlimited was at Ku'ono Marketplace, across from Kahala Mall. I think all Wholesale Unlimited shops are well-stocked in general. However... What sets this one apart from the others is the employee that we met: Francisco He was very helpful. He was able to explain the taste and texture of everything and make comparisons between each product (cookies, arare, etc.). He knew what the best-sellers were and why. Amazing! After browsing through the arare (mochi crunch), cookies, dried seafood (like cuttlefish), nuts (like pistachios), candy, li hing mui (preserved fruits), etc., I came across an interesting mochi mix. It looked simple enough to bake... and it was! It also was appropriate for my friend's birthday! I served the colorful mochi (with sprinkles in the mix)! I think I should add more butter next time... LOL!

    When my sister lived in the bay area, when I used to visit her, she always requested for the Cornflake Cookies from Wholesale Unlimited. Why? Cuz Wholesale Unlimited makes da BESTEST Cornflake Cookies!!!!!! Whole Sale Unlimited has been around for a very long time, and they have several outlets throughout Oahu. Here are the various locations (See the Link) - https://wholesaleunlimitedhi.com/pages/our-locations-2 I recently checked out the Wholesale Unlimited Express in the Ku'ono Marketplace, as it's one of Wholesale Unlimited newer stores (they were already here before, until the original store was knocked down and redeveloped at the new Ku'ono strip mall). Wholesale Unlimited is known for their local style snacks, but whenever I go to a Wholesale Unlimited, I'm mainly here for the cookies! Cornflake Cookies to be exact! Ever eat Frosted Corn Flakes? You know, da Tony da Tiger cereal??? Well, imagine da Tony da Tiger corn flakes topped on a buttery short bread cookie? Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm! Not into cookies? Well, no worries cuz Wholesale Unlimited got you covered with many other types of snacks like cracked seeds, candy, mochi crunch/arare, dried seafood, beef & fish jerky. They also sell salts, sauces, jelly, & jams. If you're looking for gifts, they also sell gift baskets too! Support a locally owned business, and if you're looking for some ono snacks, especially Cornflake Cookies............Wholesale Unlimited is the place to check out!

    Going to the mainland? Need to bring omiyage? (of course you do!) Well, this place is one stop shopping. Tons of snacks, cookies, local style candies. They also have hard to find snacks like dried clam. Prices are comparable to elsewhere (not on sale kine) and if you live east side, it's great not having to go into town. It's on the diamond head end of Ku'ono Market, where Daiichi, Foodland are. Parking can be a royal pain though. There's always lots of cars in the lot

    I'm gonna keep this review nice and short, because there's not much to say other than this is my favorite place to buy local Hawaiian snacks. I used to frequent the location near the airport on Ahua St. for years. It's much larger than this express shop across from Kahala Mall, but this location is much closer to my residence and I was thrilled that they opened in East Honolulu. They're located in the same shopping plaza as Kahala Mkt by Foodland. Parking is available in the shared lot, but it can get crowded during peak hours. My favorite snacks to get are Betty's Best cookies, particularly the chocolate chip with mac nut. Hubby loves the iso peanuts and cuttlefish. I enjoy anything with ume, as well as the seeds and arare. They really have just about every local snack under the Hawaiian sun! I love the fact that they sell gift bags, as I often bring back snacks for friends and I've also had them shipped directly to friends on the mainland as Christmas gifts. A few years ago when I bought a new home here, my realtor sent me a huge box of Wholesale Unlimited snacks and it was one of the best gifts I've ever received! Everything is reasonably priced and they keep the store neat and clean. My only complaint is that sometimes they don't have the items I want. I don't know if they need to do a better job of inventory or what the situation is, but that's the only reason why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5. Employees are always friendly and helpful no matter which location you go to. They've been in business since 1965 and I hope they stay in business for many more years to come!

    On the last full day in Honolulu, we had to stock up on Hawaii's favorite snacks! Conveniently located in the new Ku'ono Marketplace, there's lots of free open parking. During this trip, we've been to Foodland, et al, and BBQ chicken several times so we were surprised that this Wholesale Unlimited Express location wasn't on Yelp yet. Fully stocked, the one and only item we were not able to purchase....dried lychee. The wonderful sales associate, Ilia, explained that lychee was a seasonal snack item. No problem at all :) we filled our box with many other tasty snacks! Their newest item, Huff n Puff is a specialty rice snack you may enjoy. They also have Easter Baskets ready to go. Don't forget graduation leis!! We are now well stocked, heading back to Cali. A hui hou :)

    We were at the Kū'ono Marketplace at Kāhala for brunch and I noticed the Warehouse Unlimited as we were parking. It was perfect timing as I determined that I forgot one item during my visit to another Warehouse Unlimited Express store and I would stop by after eating. I'm glad that the store had the large pack of li hing mango in stock and I was able to complete my crack seed snack shopping list. It's great that more and more Warehouse Unlimited Express stores have opened up making it convenient to get these Island snacks.

    Wow....I didn't know there was a Wholesale Unlimited Express located in Kuono Marketplace in Kahala. I love Wholesale Unlimited's yummy treats. For home or for mailing off to loved ones. Every time I visit I find something new to snack on. This location like the location in Kapolei is much smaller then the Waipahu location, but they still offer tons of delicious treats. Shop is super clean and very well organized. Easy to find your favorite treats and possible new favs. The guy who works there (sorry I didn't ask his name) is super cool and accommodating. I like when people who work in a business know their products and love their jobs. Thank you for an awesome experience....

    Finally there opened been waiting so I can get my fix. Before they was located at the old strip mall in the same place. Since they build this new Ku'ono Market place Wholesale unlimited moved back which is great because it's convenient for me . The Keeamoku location is the one I normally go to. I love their Mochi balls , Fried squid, full moon and their cookies. Also their seeds are good and other snacks . My favorite is their fried squid it's very smelly but it goes very well with some adult cocktails. They also have gift baskets available for that last minute gift your looking for . I talked with one of the old timer there and she said they was open from February sometime. So support local and check them out

    Snacks!

    Wholesale Unlimited Express has a few locations but this one is located in Kahala. It's located in the same strip mall as Kahala MKT by Foodland. They are furthest from Zippy's heading east near Hawaii Pacific Health Straub. Parking was ample and I easily found a stall near the store. I was looking to buy some snacks to ship to a friend and didn't really know where to start since I don't snack. Fortunately, I have several Yeep friends who snack and know all the best places. They recommended Wholesale Unlimited Express along with some other places so I made sure to check them out. I swung by around 10ish and was the only customer but several customers entered in a blink of an eye. Customer service was friendly and the staff member greeted everyone. They have a variety of snacks so I picked a bunch of items to send. Great recommendation and a huge thank you to the Yeeps who assisted me with this care package. Good option for snacks in the Kahala area!

Huge parking lot, easy to navigate and only less 15 minutes away from our hotel in Ko Olina. The fun part about going to Costco's in other states is to see how localized some of the selection is. While they had your standard costco stuff, the one thing we always come for are the shrimp chips and the Cookies in Paradise Furikake mix. No shrimp chips unfortunately, but they had hella bags of the furikake mix, which we bought multiple of for the trip and take home to family. It's easily one of my favorite snacks of all-time and we've struck out the past couple trips to Hawaii so it was nice to see it's fully stocked here.

Like a game of musical chairs, we circle until someone vacates a spot. Then, there is a wait for carts, unless you grab one from an exiting customer. Inside the aisles are wide (thankfully). The store itself didn't seem larger that other Costcos. For the most part, the store footprint is the same. They offer meat, clothing, baked goods, hearing aids and hot dogs for $1.50 (maybe the best deal on the island). The Costcos in Hawaii also offer fresh poke, fresh sushi and a variety of Hawaii produced vegetables, fruits, fish and coffee. Tourists can even pick up inexpensive Hawaiian shirts and chocolates. We picked up groceries for the week....milk, eggs, fruit, salad mix, the usual. Check out was actually pretty quick. Every lane was open and the clerks move like poetry in motion.

It's certainly not surprising for the highest grossing, busiest Costco location in the world. What is surprising is just how quickly the checkout process can be, even with the huge number of people in line with the huge carts and dollies. The cashiers and assistants have the process down to a science, and no matter how long the line is, you're typically out in less than 15 minutes. Finding everything you need is always tricky, due to their practice of constantly moving items, and not having aisle numbers. If you can find an employee tho, they're very knowledgeable, and always happy to let you know if a specific item is in stock, and even help you locate it in the maze. Of course, you almost never leave with just the items you actually came in for. It's funny (or maddening) that on this trip, I had budgeted to buy $200 worth of durable food items to donate to the Hawaii Foodbank. Along the way I picked up just a couple off items for myself, and when I checked out, the total was $300. Typical, I guess. Once you're done, remembering where you parked (that's a whole other story) is another thing, but at least you're done. No wonder I usually only come here for the gas, lol.

I called her back as soon as I psyched myself up. Mom had a nervous laugh in her voice, so I braced myself even more... She explained that she and her classmates wanted to do something for the 88 graduates of their high school, Sacred Hearts Academy. They didn't want to give a perishable flower lei, so they thought that a yarn lei would be appropriate. What does that have to do with me? I attended Maryknoll School. Hah! Mom knows that I know how to make a yarn lei - and quite efficiently. I had made 100 lei for my nephew's graduation, so, what's 88 more? Mom also knows that I know where to get supplies at a reasonable price. She suggested that I call Max Imports and see if they're open. It's not easy saying "no" to mom. Thinking about all the sacrifices she made for me over the decades... well... you know... So, of course, mom was right. Max Imports was open. The phone was answered right away and the nice lady on the phone helped me so much. I told her that I needed to make 88 lei. She asked what school and figured out the colors: Yellow grosgrain ribbon - 3 spools White long eyelash yarn - 9 packages Yellow short eyelash yarn - 9 packages Total = $485.34, including tax I told the kind lady that I could be there in about an hour after getting cash from the bank - no problem. That was enough time for her to pull the items from the shelves. When I got to Max Imports in Kalihi, there was metered street parking and a free parking lot next to the warehouse. I went up to the table like she described and rang the "Apple Bell". She appeared quickly and I gave her the cash. She went back inside to get a receipt for me. I found out that her name was Alice. I had seen her before at the Douglas Trade Shows at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center. I had bought yarn and ribbon from them several times in the past. I had even come to this shop to get supplies. Alice was so knowledgeable and pleasant. She even helped me carry a box to my car! As we walked, I thanked her because I know that the prices at Walmart and Longs are higher. She added that those retailers wouldn't have the quantity I needed. She's right! So - if you need to make many lei, come to Max Imports for the best prices and service! Good luck!

    This is my neighborhood Safeway that's closest for me. I like this location. It's generally well…read morestocked and when an item is out, they will happily get me a rain check. The aisles are fairly wide and while it's busy, I can usually navigate this store easily. I've always enjoyed the selection of items from the bakery section--I like coming here for just a cake slice or single piece of cheesecake sometimes. One thing that does annoy me is that some of the aisles are now locked up and need a customer service associate to come unlock the display and give you your item. When I have a choice, I will wait and go to another place that doesn't lock items up like that. I would rather the store pay more for security and loss prevention than to inconvenience shoppers and make them get customer service to unlock items. That's just me. Good variety of items, helpful clerks at the front. Just wish I didn't need someone to help me unlock my items.

In that moment, you feel seen--not just as a customer, but as a person. Timaree brings back the feeling of the good ol' days of customer service, when shopping wasn't just a transaction. It was a moment of connection. She greets us like neighbors, remembers the little details, and makes each visit feel personal. For a few minutes, time slows down. We're not just passing through the checkout line, we're being welcomed, acknowledged, and cared for. Timaree is the clerk who, 10 out of 10 times, brings the most genuine kindness and customer service I've experienced at Safeway, and honestly, anywhere. Warmly, June & Matthew

    I'm telling you, Fion Enterprise is one of those places that just gets it. From the second you walk…read morein, you feel the difference. It's not that corporate, rushed, "next customer please" kind of vibe -- it's warm, it's personal, and it genuinely feels like home. That kind of service is rare these days, and these folks have it down to an art. The space is kind of tight, but it's ok and parking is sometimes a little limited so plan ahead and visit the shop on days it isn't too busy. Esmerelda here is something special. Attentive without being in your face, helpful without making you feel like a burden -- just real, authentic people who take pride in what they do. You can tell they actually care about the people they serve, not just the transaction. That means everything to us locals, and it'll mean everything to you too. Whether you're a first-timer or a regular, they treat you the same -- like ohana. No pretense, no attitude. Just good people doing good work with a smile. That kind of consistency is exactly why the community keeps coming back, and exactly why word spreads. If you're in the Laie or North Shore area and you haven't checked out Fion Enterprise yet, you're sleeping on one of the best-kept secrets on this side of the island. Support local, feel the aloha, and experience service the way it should be done.

    Shopping in Honolulu, Hawaii…read more.. Looking for a purple dress, I didn't expect to find one at Aloha Fabrics, but I did! Strolling around Dole Cannery, I saw clothing in the window. I thought that this was a hula supply store? Since I'm here, I should just take a look, right? Browsing the aisles that were filled with all kinds of merchandise like pareo, hair accessories, musical instruments, tube tops, lanyards, check book covers, hula skirts, etc., I found a rack of long mu'umu'u! I was excited to find a pretty lei print on lavender material with purple trim! Perfect! The nice man apologized that there was no dressing room. I estimated the length and width to figure what size to get. He said there's no refund and maybe I can come back for alteration? I think I'll fit! I also saw some coin purses that will make great party favors! I got a bunch and he gave me a discount for bulk purchase! Thank you! Wow... I wasn't expecting anything and this store is really terrific... they even have 100% cotton palaka fabric on bolts! I need to return when I'm ready to sew my next project! Thank you so much!!!

Lots of parking, and easy to find. Across Costco, so it can get super busy. They all the colors of Palaka, with other Hawaiian prints. They didn't have a lot of selection for Palaka clothing due to holidays, but it's ok they had the Palaka fabrics I wanted! Sooooo happy I found this place! Staff were so helpful, friendly, and attentive. They offer an array of Hawaiian wear, adults, and children. They supply hula dancers as well. Definitely coming back, as this store is very stocked. Quality fabrics and not imitation fabric. I was so excited i forgot to buy elastic buttons, OH MY! See you there!

Today I made a point of first going to "Member Services" to explain the issue. They said "just order through the app", and I promptly advised them none of the fresh seafood poke and related items were available. The representative went online, scrolled a bit, and said "gee, you are right". He then directed me over to the "Curbside Pickup" staging area to seek assistance. I go over to the area, and they have no desk or counter area, I just had to get the attention of one of the workers loading carts. She was kind enough to listen to my issue, and admitted she had no idea, but she would speak with her manager while I waited. When she returned, she had me use my smartphone to scan a QR code, which took me to a survey. She said I could complete that and management would review it and be able to respond. It did ask for name, phone, membership number, and email, so I BETTER get some response other than more promotional messaging... I don't really understand this. You can order the $5 Rotisserie chicken, their chicken salad made from leftover rotisserie chicken, fresh roasts and chops, and plenty of other fresh items. Why not Poke? It is a very long walk from the middle of the parking lot into the store, then all the way to the back of the store to get to the counter with the fresh poke and other items. My knees aren't what they used to be, and there are days I can't leave the house. I used to go to Sam's at least once a month, usually getting Poke. Today was the first time I've gone since December, which is sad. Their Spicy Ahi Poke really is the best on the island for my money, but unless they make it available for Delivery or at least Curbside Pickup, I may have had my last taste of it today. If you are reading this, and also like their Poke, please post review calling them out on it!
