About Us

In the early 1980’s, Jordan Bow researched developing aquaculture programs in Hawaii. Enthused by his findings, Jordan began to market Hawaiian Blue prawn to fine dining establishments throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. In 1985 Royal Hawaiian was born. It was not long until chefs were asking for a variety of seafood products from Hawaii and other South Pacific regions. Jordan soon had the RHS team sourcing many exotic products to match that growing demand. From its beginnings, RHS has supported local and regional sources by purchasing directly from fishermen and farmers. Royal Hawaiian has earned a reputation that is synonymous with high quality products and service. For over 30 years, Jordan has been inspired to work directly with fishermen and farmers from all over the world. RHS is committed to providing seafood that is safe, sustainable, traceable, and tested by an independent third party, while at the same time going beyond our own business to create positive change. The Royal Hawaiian sustainability program mission is to educate ourselves, the fishing community, and consumers.
