    Hawaiʻi’s Big Five (Plus 2) “By 1941, every time a native Hawaiian switched on his lights, turned on the gas or rode on a street car, he paid a tiny tribute into Big Five coffers.” (Alexander MacDonald, 1944) The story of Hawaii’s largest companies dominates Hawaiʻi’s economic history. Since the early/mid- 1800s, until relatively recently, five major companies emerged and dominated the Island’s economic framework. Their common trait: they were focused on agriculture - sugar. They became known as the Big Five: C. Brewer (1826;) Theo H. Davies (1845;) Amfac - starting as Hackfeld & Company (1849;) Castle & Cooke (1851) and Alexander & Baldwin (1870.) C. Brewer & Co.

  • German Sugar's Sticky Fingers Frederick Bernays Wiener Overshadowed by Aloha Tower, and on the Site of One of the Twin 21-Story
    German Sugar's Sticky Fingers Frederick Bernays Wiener Overshadowed by Aloha Tower, and on the site of one of the twin 21-story Amfac Towers on the Fort Street Mall, there originated one of the most memorable and unusual incidents of Hawaiian history. Amfac Inc., now a billion dollar conglomerate, is the successor at one remove to Hackfeld & Co. Ltd., which prior to 1918 was the center of German influence in the Pacific. Seized by the Alien Property Custodian in that year, Hackfeld & Co. was sold to a new group, American Factors Ltd. Beginning in 1920, the expropriated former stockholders recovered some or all of their seized property, after which they sued the purchasers, contending that the sale price fixed in 1918 had been grossly inadequate, that it was the result of a business conspiracy masquerading as patriotism. After eight years of struggle in the courts, where all their contentions were rejected, some of the former stockholders then sought to recoup their claimed losses from the United States Government. In the course of defending those new proceedings, the Government embarked on a relentless search, laboriously assembling and arranging bits and pieces of evidence from many persons in widely scattered places. Subsequently the United States established in those and further lawsuits, extending over another nine years, that the principal earlier recoveries had involved extensive and artfully contrived frauds; that a subordinate official, whose apparently fortuitous appearance on the scene was actually of determinative weight, had earlier been corrupted; and that two future Chief Justices of the United States, Secretary of State Charles Evans Hughes and Attorney General Harlan Fiske Stone, had each made a controlling mistake of law.

  • James D. Dole and the 1932 Failure of the Hawaiian Pineapple Company
    richard a. hawkins James D. Dole and the 1932 Failure of the Hawaiian Pineapple Company There are fewer case studies of entrepreneurial failure than of entrepreneurial success. The records of failed businesses usually do not survive. The Hawaiian Pineapple Co. is an example of a failed company where the records survived. In 1932 a new company was organized that acquired the failed company’s name and assets. One of the assets was the brand name “Dole”. Today “Dole” is one of the leading brand names in fresh and processed fruit and vegetables. The origin of the brand name is the eponymous James Drummond Dole, who founded the Hawaiian Pineapple Company in 1901, which is one of the predecessors of today’s Dole Food Company, Inc. It is ironic that his name has survived as an international brand name because Dole lost control of his company in 1932, in what was the American Territory of Hawai‘i’s largest inter-war business failure. This article explores and analyzes the reasons for the failure of the Hawaiian Pine- apple Co. Dole migrated from his native Massachusetts to the Hawaiian Islands in late 1899 to take up the cultivation of coffee at a home- stead settlement. However, at the time coffee turned out not to be a Richard Hawkins is Senior Lecturer in History at the School of Humanities, University of Wolverhampton, England. He began his research on Hawai‘i’s pineapple industry as a doc- toral student in the early 1980s. Since the completion of his doctoral dissertation in 1986, he has continued to work on the economic and social history of Hawai‘i.
