THE COMPANY
Robert Taira founded King's Hawaiian in Hilo Hawaii 61 years ago and, after capturing the lion's share of the bakery business on the big island, moved the business to Honolulu in the 60's. There, King's Hawaiian became not only the largest bakery business and a successful restaurant, but also the largest customer in Hawaii of the US Postal Service due to the huge mail order business from stateside consumers who craved the Original Sweet Bread. To realize the next vision in his plan, Robert moved the business to Torrance, CA in the early 70's where it resides today with two restaurants and two bakery plants including one of the most modern in the industry. King's Hawaiian is continuing to grow and has built a new bakery facility near Atlanta GA that went live mid October 2011. The company, which is still 100% family owned, is now led by Robert's son Mark who serves as CEO and continues the family's long time commitment to irresistible quality and behavioral values that make King's Hawaiian a great place to work.
