Aloha Tofu Factory, Inc.

Aloha Tofu Factory, Inc. Eat Tofu...It's Good For You! Instead, the patriarch Kamesaburo just wanted to provide for his family's needs.

Aloha Tofu Factory started from very humble beginnings in 1950 when Kamesaburo and Tsuruko Uyehara agreed to take over the running of a friend's tofu factory. Normally, it would take a lifetime to master the art of tofu-making, but young Kamesaburo had only a week to learn everything about tofu and keep the factory running. The first generation of the Uyehara family who ran the tofu factory didn't set out to become Hawaii's largest tofu manufacturer in the islands today. The first tofu shop was located on Dillingham Boulevard near what is now Honolulu Community College. In 1964, Aloha Tofu moved to the Ala Moana Farmers Market where the business grew until a fire wiped out the factory in 1966. The family joined together and Kamesaburo rebuilt the factory and started over. In 1976, their hard work and determination was rewarded when the Uyehara family established their own factory on Akepo Lane in Kalihi where it still stands today. Aloha Tofu Factory and the Uyehara family built their company based on the belief that the people of Hawaii deserve the freshest tofu. As a company with local values and the vision of aloha, the Uyehara family invites everyone to enjoy the versatility and health benefits that Aloha Tofu has to offer.
