You may only know us for bringing quality Shave Ice to the mainland , but the Mahalo story is deeper than that. We’d like to share it with you.
Chad has known Zeb since he was a sophomore in High School, and refers to him as his little brother. In 2020, Zeb and Dev became the first franchise owners of Mahalo expanding to Phoenix, Arizona. They now manage catering in central San Diego along with booking operations. No one represents the Mahalo heart better than this electric couple.
When Zeb and Dev launched Mahalo in Phoenix, it left an enormous gap. Fate would have it that we would be introduced to Jay who would step in and carry us in catering. We consistently receive calls requesting Jay to serve at our events because of his attention to detail, kindness, and his love for our clients. It was an easy decision to invite Jay to be the Manager of our first location.
A friend had a 1970 VW Bus for sale in central California, and we said yes! What represents Mahalo better than this? We painted it, put our Mahalo Mamma on it, and were off to expand our catering hippie style!
MAHALO! You are the part of our story that must be mentioned. We are thankful for those who have gone before us, the land and it’s beauty, and those we get to serve on a daily basis. It’s about so much more than Shave Ice for us. May your body and soul be nourished, and Mahalo for the opportunity to journey with you.
In January of 2022 we launched our first ever brick and mortar location! This is the beginning of a new chapter for us, and we’re already eyeing additional locations, five months later, our second location in Ocean Beach. With the launch, we refined our menu and expanded it as well. We’re proud of our creation, the Dole Bowl, wrapping our Dole Whip with fresh fruit, granola and coconut. It’s getting real around here!
