Hawaiian Candies & Nuts, Ltd. dba Menehune Mac

Overall Lowest Cost

Situation

According to Robert Morita of Menehune Mac, they needed to implement the use of e-commerce to provide their products over a wider geographic area.  This logical decision was necessitated, "so that we can generate greater sales volume," said Mr. Morita.  With that in mind, they needed to have a hosting company with a great track record that could provide them the web hosting services they required.

Solution

To achieve their goal of getting Menehune Mac's wonderfully tasty treats over a broader geographic area and gaining more sales, Robert Morita went on the internet to use one of the  search engines in the world wide web, Yahoo, to specifically look for, "asp web hosts."  During his hunt, Robert Morita found another website link that provided helpful comparisons between various web hosting companies.

Indeed, there are many companies to choose from in the web hosting arena.  In Robert Morita's pursuit for the exact web hosting provider for Menehune Mac, Parcom was the obvious choice for its, "overall lowest cost," commented Mr. Morita.  This is the most compelling reason that made Menehune Mac choose Parcom.  Along with overall lowest cost, Parcom provides a network infrastructure that is fast, efficient, reliable and secure.  Additionally, the feature-packed web hosting packages at Parcom are highly affordable. 

Parcom is a well established web hosting company that offers many supported scripting options and extras for its valued customers.  ASP is one of the main supported scripting features.  Parcom is the "low cost provider of ASP hosting," remarked Mr. Morita.  This has been one of the best solutions enjoyed by Robert Morita.  

Parcom has been the web hosting provider for Menehune Mac since the spring of 2003.  There are many advantages in having Parcom as the web hosting provider for business and/or personal web sites.  The fact that Parcom offers commercial grade e-mail system has been marvelous for Menehune Mac to have.  An added benefit to that has been their ability to create e-mail aliases on top of the full e-mail accounts that come with generous megabytes of space per e-mail account.

When Parcom launched its Anti-Spam and Anti-Virus services, Menehune Mac was one of the many companies able to take immediate advantage of the beneficial capabilities of these services to take back and harness control of their e-mail inboxes from dreaded spammers.

Hawaiian Candies & Nuts, Ltd. dba Menehune Mac is based in Honolulu, Hawaii.  They are the oldest existing manufacturer of macadamia nut candies in the State of Hawaii.  Founded in 1939, Menehune Mac's mission has and always been to produce the finest quality confections and provide quality customer service to their clients around the world. Their specialty is in providing fine chocolate covered macadamia nuts and cookies.  In addition to that, they also resell food products that are made in Hawaii and offer other services to create things such as party favors, gift baskets, hotel turndown amenities, and many more.  Their primary customers are in Hawaii, Japan, continental United States and Guam.

One of the essential parts in running a great e-commerce web site is for the customers to have a user friendly shopping cart system for the wonderful treats and goodies.  Robert Morita has integrated the use of the shopping cart from CandyPress.com for Menehune Mac's internet site.

Asked whether Robert Morita would recommend Parcom to his friends, family members and business associates or to anyone else, he overwhelmingly concluded, "yes!"
