Why Us
Local roots. Hawaii-built logistics. One distributor, three categories.
Ham Produce & Seafood is locally based, locally managed, and built specifically for the realities of foodservice in Hawaii. As an Oahu-grown operation, we understand the constraints of island supply chains and the time-sensitive needs of restaurants, hotels, and institutional kitchens across the state.
For more than four decades, we’ve focused on one thing: making it easier for Hawaii’s foodservice operators to get the fresh produce, fresh seafood, and frozen items they need, when they need them. Our scale, sourcing relationships, and same-day delivery model are all built around that goal, and the trust we’ve earned from our customers reflects it.
One Distributor. Three Categories.
Ham is the only distributor on Oahu that delivers all three essential product categories under one operation:
- Fresh Produce
- Fresh Seafood
- Frozen Items
This allows our customers to:
- Simplify purchasing and logistics
- Reduce vendor coordination
- Maintain consistency across menus and locations
One distributor. One delivery. Fewer complications.
Sourcing Power & Market Access
Ham’s scale and long-standing supplier relationships provide access to consistent supply across both local and global markets.
As one of the highest-volume buyers in Hawaii’s seafood market, we maintain strong relationships with local fishermen, suppliers, and international producers. This purchasing strength allows us to:
- Secure reliable supply
- Navigate market fluctuations
- Maintain competitive pricing
- Respond quickly when availability is limited
Our sourcing approach is designed to support both quality and long-term price stability.
Same-Day Delivery Advantage
Same-day delivery is not an add-on service — it is built into how we operate.
Our centralized Honolulu location, refrigerated fleet, and experienced logistics team allow us to respond quickly without disrupting reliability. Whether supporting daily operations or urgent needs, our delivery model is designed for speed and consistency.

This balance of scale and agility is critical in Hawaii’s foodservice environment.
