SeaWide Express: Essential for Hawaii

Everyone can agree that Hawaii is a beautiful place and a beautiful state.  It is known as the Paradise of the Pacific.  Located 2,000 miles from the U.S. mainland, it has a thriving economy based on tourism, agriculture and defense.  But a critical issue is that almost everything needed for everyday life in Hawaii must be shipped in from somewhere else.

That is where SeaWide Express comes in.  Hawaii is one of the dominant geographies served by SeaWide Express.  Shipments from all across the U.S. mainland find their way to Hawaii via SeaWide’s freight forwarding and container consolidation facility in La Habra, CA and then onto ocean vessels to the main islands of O’ahu, Hawai’i, Maui and Kauai. 

The flow of goods to Hawaii via SeaWide Express includes cereals, soups, packaged goods, ice cream, and bicycles.  Shipments of supplies for the tourism industry (which is already back to pre-pandemic levels) arrive through SeaWide, usually within 7-10 days, including supplies and food items for restaurants, and building materials like lumber, carpet, roofing supplies and cement for the expansion of resort properties.

When SeaWide first arrived on the scene less than 10 years ago, it had the challenge of establishing itself within the freight industry in Hawaii.  Even though it was new then, it benefitted by being a part of the global food and logistics giant, AJC Group.  Today, SeaWide Express is a dominant player in the Hawaiian community because of its track record of reliability and the trusted relationships built by SeaWide’s inland and native Hawaiian representatives.  

Freight continues to move with SeaWide Express connecting the U.S. mainland with its 50th state – the only U.S. state outside of N. America.  It is the state with the longest life expectancy, the most isolated population center on earth and the longest island chain in the world.    

When you need help with freight to Hawaii, SeaWide Express can assist.
