About Us
Hawaii Nutrition Company was founded in 2002 in Honolulu, Hawaii specializing in Hawaiian grown botanicals such as Noni, Spirulina, Turmeric and others. Under the direction of Herbalist Monika Kathuria, HNC develops quality Nutritional Supplements and Bath & Body products featuring these Hawaiian grown herbs. We are also able to supply bulk raw materials in the forms of dehydrated powder, juice, and juice concentrate. We can provide formulation assistance to develop or manufacture your unique product. Our laboratory is a certified manufacturer to several countries including Japan, China, South Korea, and Canada.
At HNC, we believe the Hawaiian Islands are the jewel of US agriculture. The pristine environment offers ideal growing conditions for potent botanical ingredients. The majority of our herbs are grown on the Big Island where active volcanoes constantly pump an abundance of minerals into the soil from miles below the earth's surface, while fresh rainwater pours down daily onto the rain forest farms.
That's just the beginning of the journey of our ingredients to your home. The fruits and herbs are picked at the peak of perfection for the next step of either dehydration or juicing. To make our famous noni juice, organically grown ripe fruits are aged in a natural fermentation process for weeks before the juiced is pressed and filtered. The freshly pressed juice is pasteurized and bottled simultaneously right here on Oahu for maximum freshness. Our juice has never left the island for processing, never been exposed to excessive heat or shipping conditions. We supply product directly to retailers. That means product is always fresh, has not been sitting in some distribution warehouse for months before reaching the store shelf.
