KTA Super Stores started in 1916, as a modest 500 square-foot grocery and dry goods store, by Koichi & Taniyo Taniguchi. Since then, KTA has grown to a seven (7) store chain, serving the residents of Hawai‘i island.

When they first opened, the couple had no idea their modest business would someday evolve into a multi-store supermarket chain, employing over 800 associates. The couple simply believed they were assisting family and friends obtain necessary grocery and household items.

For over 100 years, KTA Super Stores has been committed to our founder's philosophy, which is a commitment to humbly serve the people of our community.
