Hawaii Grown Into High Rise Tourist Mecca
Hawaii shifted from a sugar economy to a tourism driven boom after World War II. Amfac Inc. transformed from a stagnant sugar firm into an internationally diversified group, acquiring two mainland companies and expanding into hospitality. It now runs Kaanapali in Maui and Silverado in Napa, with recent expansions including island Holidays hotels and Fred Harvey Inc. acquisitions. The harbor of investments spans hotels, travel services, and international ventures, underscoring Hawaii as a tourism powerhouse.
