Foodland to reopen at Ala Moana Center on Aug. 31
Foodland Super Market, Ltd. said today its Ala Moana Center store, Foodland Farms, will open on Aug. 31. The 47,395-square-foot store will be located in the Center’s Ewa Expansion, beneath the new Nordstrom.
The new store will have a hot food bar with more than 30 dishes, a poke bar, a bakery, a shave ice stand, a juice bar, and a wine and craft beer bar. It will also have a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf shop.

Foodland Ala Moana first opened on Aug. 13, 1959, as one of the original tenants at Ala Moana Center. It was first located in the area that is now the center’s food court. Foodland moved to a spot near the post office and Sears in June 1986.
Foodland has 33 stores, including the Ala Moana store, and employs more than 2,500 at Foodland, Sack N Save and Foodland Farms stores on four islands.

Good company. Glad they are back
SOMEBODY CAVED.
Ground level parking is already full and messy because of their neighbor, Shirokiya Japan Walk. The upper level parking there is a maze. Going to be interesting.
My thoughts exactly!
Yep. no parking between the two stores. They should limit parking in the area to 30 min.
Foodland Farms is not the same store as Foodland. Foodland Farms has a lot of gourmet imported foods and gourmet wines. It caters to a different segment of the population. Which is why there is a Foodland Farms in Aina Haina.
Yes true, they have higher end items. But FF has everyday items too. Good selection of alcohol!
True that. Lots of good wines and spirits.
The Aina Haina Foodland Farm is good. Ono food and popular. Lots of people in there shopping. Will be a great addition to Shirokiya’s restaurants.
Sure is good. That is one place I stop in on my way home from work if I do not want to cook that night. Work in Aina Haina and Portlock, live further West, so it is even on the right side of Kalanianaole for me to pull in.
True. Foodland gives back to the community, is generous and is well managed. Not so with the problem-plagued Safeway.
Well, they do need a supermarket for all of the high end condo dwellers. Now those denizens of high atmosphere living won’t have to leave their protected enclaves and be exposed to homeless and the unwashed plebes to do their food shopping. There is a plan for Ala Moana Shopping Center and it isn’t about shopping anymore. The mix of stores is odd. The luxury stores are mixed in with lower end shops that have no appeal to the local shopper. So…what does General Growth see the future of the property as?
They see it as a perpetual gold mine with their B S tax loophole of not having to pay State taxes like everyone else.
