Hilo Hattie is Coming to Waikiki in a Big Way

The Hilo Hattie Hawaiian Shop, with its line of tropical print clothing and island memorabilia, has been one of the most successful Hawaiiana shops in the islands for more then 40 years. The world headquarters for Hilo Hattie is located on the Nimitz Highway in Honolulu and it includes an 80,000 square foot retail showroom. Hilo Hattie has just announced their plans to open a 29,000 square foot retail store in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center on Kalakaua Avenue in Waikiki in mid-2007. When the Waikiki shop opens, the Ala Moana Hilo Hattie will be stocked most heavily with items that tend to interest Hawaii residents and the Waikiki shop will be stocked with items most likely to interest visitors.
