Great selection of Japanese, Chinese, & Hawaii snacks. Love the Betty cornflake cookies! Friendly & helpful staff!!

Wholesale Unlimited Inc. was founded in 1965 when Betty Nagamoto initially sold beef jerky to local bars and markets from the trunk of her car. The warehouse is located in Waipahu and they now have six locations under "Wholesale Unlimited Express" throughout Oahu. This location in Honolulu is in a small plaza with a small amount of parking. Although the shop is small, they have a variety of Hawaii snacks including many with li hing powder. There were even a lot of snacks here that I found in Japan which was amazing to see so I grabbed a lot of those. Comparing these prices to other stores around the island, we found that Wholesale Unlimited was the best bang for our buck. The worker (I never got her name) was so friendly! We were chatting about some of her favorite snacks and we got to sample some as well. read more

My friend gave me this Japanese milk candy that was so good. She said she got it from here. I had to get some of my own. I entered the store and the saleswoman was stocking the shelves. She asked if I needed any help. I showed her the candy that I was looking for. She pointed it out to me. I grabbed a bag $4.25. I also saw the Betty's Best cookies. I had to pick up one of those. I got the 8oz. chocolate chip arare $6.75. I love that these cookies are crunchy. They also sell seed, dried seafood and many other snacks. read more

I got a furikake mixed but I didn't like it. I did like the strawberry sour belts though. It was really cheap. You just walk around and look at what you want. A lot of souvenirs that where out of my price range. You're greeted by an auntie/grandma who runs it. It's a good selection to buy food to take home to family. read more

I needed some local snacks during my stay, so searching on Yelp Wholesale Unlimited came up. It's in the Like Like shopping center that I've driven by, but had no reason to go in. The parking lot is shared with the other businesses and can be very crowded so you either have to wait or look elsewhere. I found a spot on the street. There was only one woman working, and the family before me was buying quite a bit. I grabbed gummy bears, pineapple gummy bears, pineapple gummies, and cereal cookies. They have a lot of other items that might appeal to others. I like this store better than Lin's because the parking is easier. The woman working was really friendly and I felt like I was at someone's home because of her helpfulness. Lin's may have more, but Wholesale has what I want. Definitely worth checking out!

I love snacks so when a friend asked me to purchase 3 bags of Oriental Mix for her here, I was more than happy to oblige, having never been here. So glad I came because wow. The lady working had been with the company 22 yrs. She was telling us stories about how she tried everything for the sake of trying but mostly the newer items. She made great recommendations and didn't stir us wrong especially with Betty's Cookies (owner's mother). Corn Flakes is a must. No wonder it was Betty's best selling. The Party Mix and Furikake Mix are my favorite. Well seasoned and fresh (not stale at all compared to other places sometimes) Also picked up a pack of 3D Lychee Gummies. Yummers! read more

Great place to get your snacks or li hing flavored items. Small area but lots of choices. My snacks were like $4.00 and $7.00 but my favorite. read more

Wholesale Unlimited Express - My favorite - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Snacks ? My weakness all kinds of local favorites . Today on 4th of July decided to load up on some local snacks . One of my go to is their Fried squid and Almond crunch . This particular Wholesale Unlimited is much smaller than their other locations. Normally when I go to Vegas I pick up some stuff to snack on the plane . If you haven't tried their Fried Squid you won't be disappointed. This Wholesale Unlimited is located right across from Keeamoku Walmart parking is very tight because they share parking with other businesses . Support local read more

The review is just for the Betty's cookies at this store. They have a wide selection and I've tried at least four of them so far and if you like crunchy buttery yummy cookies this is the place to buy it. read more

Great selection of snacks and Betty's cookies! Arare from abroad, li hing powder, seeds, and furikake party mix. So ono. Prices are reasonable but it can add up. Great for omiyage gifts to bring to friends and family members who now work or live on the mainland. Usually there is only one person there to ring up your order. Always a smiling face and helpful to answer your questions. read more

Snackaholic bliss... Fill your cravings with the taste of the islands and beyond here at Wholesale Unlimited and don't let this tiny place think they might not have it and if they don't you were too late lol! Some items do sell fast especially during graduation or special events as snacks are the foundation for many favors, gifts and just a thank you. Everything from gummy shapes, cookies, beef jerky and of course all things li hing and preserved fruits, if you can't find it the staff there can help you to see if the other locations may have it so that you don't have to make several journeys to find it and that's something priceless. This location is in Like Like Plaza and though parking can be though at times I never have a problem finding one and on this visit took Cece to help check off her shopping list and gosh in lightning speed knew exactly what she wanted and was a bit late to find that elusive item but did manage to grab some goodies and what a thoughtful friend to be a personal shopper. Thank you! read more

Good option if you're into nuts, dried seafood, & dried / preserved fruits. Looking for gummies Li Hing Mui? This is your spot - they even sell just the li hing mui powder itself. They also have cookies, jellies, & gift baskets. Affordable packs ranging from $3.50 to $9. Perfect treats to bring as presents. Tried the party mix, furikake mix (delish!), li hing mui gummy bears, li hing mui sliced mangoes (not my fave). Small shop but great selection. read more

Snacks in Honolulu, Hawaii... Everyone must eat. Why not eat something enjoyable - like mochi crunch (arare), cookies, jerky, candy, puffed rice, see Mui (preserved fruits), gift baskets, insulated bags filled with goodies - ready for gift-giving, sunflower seeds, flavored popcorn, and other snacks! Wholesale Unlimited has many locations. We came to this one because it's between the airport and Waikiki. Located on Ke'eaumoku Street, across from Walmart, at the Like Like Plaza, this Wholesale Unlimited has a free shared parking lot and a super helpful employee (Corina?). She was showing a customer a Flat Rate postal box. They were trying to figure out if the customer's purchases could fit in the box! My friend had called ahead to make sure that they had Betty's Best Cookies in stock. These cookies are crisp, rich, and delicious! I don't blame her for buying several bags. The most popular flavors are the Chocolate Chip Macadamia Nut, the Furi Furi, and the Cornflake Cookies. I saw packets of Li Hing powder - if you want to sprinkle some on your pineapple, mango, gummy bears, etc. I almost got some dried fish... But... Nah... I should finish up the snacks I already have. I can return later... LOL! read more

Always the go to for ono snack attacks! Love the chocolate gummy bears, but still waiting for the Ume Sakura arare to make a comeback.

Lots of selection to bring home to the mainland. All my relatives super happy, including me

Nice selection of Hawaiian snacks and li hing candy at good prices. I especially like their pineapple li hing mui flavored belts. They are thin, good texture, and tastes really fresh. I would definitely return for more. read more

Great place great price, and great selection. Keeamoku one has the best workers. They greet you and service you with a smile. Shave ice candy is winnah. Party mix is crazy good!!! read more

Very pleasant worker. Yes the number of items that they have on the selves is limited. But the variety make it worth the while to check them out. Went there to get the pickled plum. I liked that it sealed in individual packets. Stay Safe read more

If you're anything like me -- a certified snack addict with a soft spot for anything Li Hing Mui -- then Wholesale Unlimited is basically heaven on Earth. This place isn't just a store... it's a full-blown treasure trove of all your favorite Hawaiian candies, snacks, and Li Hing Mui everything! I'm talking about the classics we grew up with: the lemon peel candies, the crack seed mixes, the sour belts tossed in that magical Li Hing dust that makes your mouth pucker just right. Honestly, it's the only spot where I walk in thinking I'm grabbing just one thing and end up leaving with an entire snack haul like I'm preparing for a hurricane. Need Li Hing powder for your own creations? They've got it -- and not just a little pouch either -- bulk style, so you can turn your entire kitchen into a candy lab if you want. Need that specific li hing gummy that nobody else carries anymore? Boom, it's here. Want to relive your after-school snack memories with seed, arare, or dried mango that tastes like home? They gotchu. The prices are reasonable, the staff are always super nice, and the selection? Let's just say it's impossible to leave without finding at least five new things you didn't even realize you needed. Wholesale Unlimited is hands down the perfect place to stock up, snack up, and relive all your best local grinds memories -- one sweet (or salty, or sour) bite at a time. read more

Today was my first time visiting this store. We actually came here to buy some snacks for my dad. Yeah it's another last minute gift. It's just been so hard to get gifts with all the on and off closures of stores. Wholesale Unlimited is small inside but they do pack a lot of goodies in there. It's a nice set up and it's very organized. It's been a while since I've been in a Wholesale Unlimited and I didn't know what to get. Like a kid in a candy shop. We ended up getting shirayuki , chibi arare, Mochi balls, and chocolate covered strawberries. I got the strawberries just to try. My daughter and I had one in the car when we left. Those were good. I would definitely like to come back to this store. There's a lot of things that I'd like to try the next time. read more

A super quaint snack shop with a decent variety of snacks. For the size of this shop, their snack selection isn't bad. They had a good balance between sweet and salty local style snacks like mochi crunch, cookies, jerky, and candy. Prices are pretty decent and the lady working at the counter was friendly, answering all of my dad's questions. A huge plus for us was having a private parking lot for the small shopping center. read more

First time at a Wholesale Unlimited Express and I was quite impressed! My boyfriend loves the Wholesale products. Inside the store is quite small, but well-packed with a wide variety of goodies. It was cleaned and well organized. We ended up purchasing the following to bring back to NV: Chocolate covered raisins Chocolate covered caramel Wasabi Pees Lei Candy Necklace Gummy Bears Pineapple Coconut Balls Brite Crawlers 3D Gummy Hearts Apple Rings Ono Japan Ume Iso Peanuts Japan Milk Candy and much more.. Our bill came over $75.00, but the snacks were unique and quite tasty! Most of the snacks are local, but some offered include Japanese style snacks as well! Parking is pretty easy. It shares with local businesses, but was quite open when we had arrived around 4:00 p.m on a weekday. We had to have a extra carry-on for all of the goodies we brought back! read more

Small store with good amount of variety. Prices are reasonable. Stopped by here to grab snacks to bring Hawaii to home.

A friend at work turned me on to some delish candy from Wholesale Unlimited. She used to live in Waipahu and would frequent the store there, but after finding out they had a location in town on Keeamoku Street, I was glad we didn't have to trek out west. ATMOSPHERE: The "Express" store is located in the Like Like Plaza, the same strip mall that houses Like Like Drive Inn. Parking is limited but free. The store is filled to the brim with candies, seeds, and snacks of all kinds. THE GOODS: Fancy Japan Mix Candy - $3.95/bag The candies look like little jewels in different shapes, all individually wrapped and each with a different fruit flavor. I love them as they're not overly sugary. Fried Squid - $7.95 As I was waiting in line to pay, I noticed these had a sign next to them stating "staff favorite". Available in two sizes, I went large. Not knowing if I'd like them, I bought one bag. I should've gotten two, no four, no the whole rack! OMG, these were amazingly good. They remind me of the razor thin beef jerkey that's sold on Maui but instead made out of thinly sliced squid that's coated in a light batter and deep-fried. There's no chewiness like ika, but has all the flavor of it. Excellent pupu with your wine or beer! Highly recommended. SERVICE: A couple were tending to the store, both of whom were friendly and professional. OVERALL: I think Willy Wonka does exist, and he lives on Oahu! LOL. read more

I swear I come here almost weekly. Almost! Easy to find. In the same shopping complex as the old Likelike Drive Inn, now YogurStory, across from Walmart/Sam's Club. The parking lot is busy in the mornings/early afternoon due to the YogurStory breakfast/brunch rush. But otherwise, parking is relatively easy. Auntie K is the best!! Super helpful, sweet, and loves to talk story. Makes the experience so much fun. Recommend getting your local snacks here! read more

A small snack shop but you can definitely find some goodies here and for a reasonable price. They have a good variety and the worker who helped me was nice & answered any questions I had. I ended up buying a bunch of different snacks and candies to take home with me like garlic chips and mochi balls and a variety of li hing candies. Super easy to grab what you need and go. read more

Definitely and "Express" store; Wholesale Unlimited Express sits smack in the center of the LIkelke Drive Inn shopping strip mall. The one good thing is location. The one no so good thing is the limited product selection. But and if you live or work in the Ala Moana area, it serves its purpose as their inventory and products are their most popular items saving you the journey to their larger location in Mapunapuna. You may find similar products in other ethnic markets (Don Quijote, Marukai) or in stores like Walmart or CVS but it is not the same. I learned you could special order a product if not found at the location proper. They will have it delivered from their larger store or warehouse. A nice touch for folks like me who try not to venture outside of my 5 mile radius of my office. Parking is easily found and if not, street parking on Keeaumoku Street is usually available. read more

Very convenient location to shop. They have items other supermarkets and drug stores don't carry. Now they have Amazon pick-up and return station. That's another great convenience, so your items won't get stolen. A lot of friendly staff but sometimes hard to find help when the store is busy. read more

When in Waikiki, you MUST stop by here! For the snacks at the beach, and to take home for your friends and family back home. Prices are significantly cheaper than Target or wherever by $1-$3 and they have such a huge selection! My friend and I came back here twice and bought so much candy we had trouble zipping up our suitcase. My favorite part was meeting the nice lady who worked here. I was overwhelmed by the thousands of bags hanging on the wall and she gave the yummiest recommendations. I love her so much we started calling her Auntie. I can't wait to go back to Hawaii and visit this place again. Down the street from the huge Ala Moana mall and across a Walmart so it's perfect! My favorite thing that I bought there would be the CORNFLAKE COOKIES. My mouth is watering as a type this. MUST TRY IT!!! read more

LOVE THIS LOCATION ! very close in between waikiki and ala moana if shopping or in this area.
