Kapolei, often referred to as Oahu’s "Second City," has rapidly become a focal point for industrial development and business expansion in Hawaii. Positioned on the island’s west side, Kapolei offers strategic access to Honolulu via the H-1 Freeway, as well as proximity to the Kalaeloa Barbers Point Harbor—an essential logistics hub for bulk cargo and container shipments.

Recent years have seen robust investment in new industrial parks and commercial zones, including the Kapolei Business Park and Campbell Industrial Park, which together offer millions of square feet of modern warehousing, distribution, and light manufacturing space. Vacancy rates remain low, and demand is strong from sectors such as logistics, construction, energy, and food processing.

Kapolei’s workforce is supported by a network of training and upskilling programs. The University of Hawaii’s Leeward Community College and the state’s Workforce Development Division provide tailored training for manufacturing, logistics, and skilled trades. The city’s economic development office works closely with businesses to help them access state and county incentives, including Hawaii’s Enterprise Zones Program and various tax credits for job creation and investment.

With ongoing infrastructure improvements, including expanded roadways and utility upgrades, Kapolei is well-positioned to support both local entrepreneurs and national firms seeking a gateway to the Pacific and Asia.
