Times Supermarkets

Times Supermarkets is a prominent supermarket chain based in Honolulu, Hawaii, with a rich history spanning over 75 years. Founded in 1949 by brothers Albert and Wallace Teruya, sons of Okinawan immigrants, the company began with a single store in Honolulu. It has since expanded to operate 24 locations across the Hawaiian islands of Oahu, Maui, and Kauai.

The supermarket chain offers a comprehensive range of products and services to meet the diverse needs of its customers. Their offerings include a variety of groceries, fresh produce, meats, seafood, and bakery items. Notably, Times Supermarkets provides Sterling Silver® Premium Meats, exclusively sold in Hawaii at their stores.

Times Supermarkets is committed to supporting the local community by sourcing products from local farms and offering Hawaii-made products. They emphasize everyday low prices without the need for club cards, simplifying savings for customers. Weekly advertised specials further enhance their value proposition.
