HPM Building Supply is getting ready to move into a new store with drive-thru lumberyard on Lanai, Hi.
The 5,000-sq. ft. space was previously known as Lanai Hardware & Lumber store, which closed in 2023 when its former operators retired. The store is currently being renovated and is slated to open this April.
“The expansion to the beautiful island of Lanai marks an exciting new chapter for HPM as we introduce our company to the community of Lanai and serve their needs,” said Jason Fujimoto, HPM chairman and CEO. “This opportunity allows us to provide valuable resources, a wide range of products, and diverse materials to a unique market like Lanai, and we look forward to developing a collaborative relationship with its residents and businesses.”
Early plans for the new retail space include the addition of live plants sourced from landowner Palama Lanai’s nursery. HPM core products such as lumber, plywood, hardware, power tools, paint, plumbing and electrical supplies, as well as flooring will be in stock. New retail options include pet food and supplies and various seasonal products. Custom-ordering will also be available for Lanai customers who wish to purchase specialty lumber, windows, doors, cabinets, window coverings, and manufactured products, like HPM’s Custom Metal Roofing.
HPM plans to engage the Lanai community, as well as current team members, in its recruitment efforts for the new store. The 100% employee-owned company looks to add six key positions.
A fifth-generation local business, HPM is 100% employee-owned. It serves the home improvement market and building industry statewide through its retail stores, building supply and lumberyards, Design Centers, and 87ZERO by HPM showrooms, roofing and manufacturing facilities, corporate offices and U.S. West Coast Consolidation Facility spanning 19 locations across Hawai‘i Island, Maui, O‘ahu, Kaua‘i, Lanai and Washington state.
