Who We Are
At Honolulu Coffee Company, we are dedicated to sharing the spirit of aloha through exceptional, relationship-driven specialty coffee. Our mission is simple and powerful: to create memorable Hawaiian coffee experiences that bring people together.
We believe in quality, hospitality, and a deep respect for the people and places that make our coffee possible — from the farm to the cup. As a family-owned company, we are guided by values that honor craftsmanship, community, integrity, and genuine human connection. Every cafe and every cup reflects our commitment to excellence and the rich culture of Hawaiʻi.
We’re looking for a Marketing Coordinator and Social Media Specialist to join our growing team in Honolulu, HI. If you’re a detail-driven and creative designer who loves storytelling, believes in creating with intention, and feels inspired by coffee, culture, and community — we’d love to meet you.

You stay connected to current trends while understanding what it means to be classic. You’re motivated by successes and quickly learn from failures.
