KA : Ku'ia is some kind of obstacle or to encounter an obstacles. As such I'm a little confused as to why one would use it as their brand name, I can only assume that it's their name. Despite all that though, the Hawaiian will still appeal to local customers. Domain is retail.

KA : This could probably serve as either Hawaiian or pidgin, but I'm choosing pidgin. "keiki kaukau" means kid food. Which is what the box is full of, toys for children in the form of local foods. My guess is that someone thought it was adorable, because it is. Domain is retail.

KA : This is a dubious use of pidgin in my opinion. Usually Shaka Shaka is used ti appeal to tourists, not locals. But the product was in a local store. Nonetheless, tourists do love anything seemingly local but not too local and this fits the bill. Domain retail.

KA : Mauna Loa is a mountain on the Big Island. It means "vast mountain" because of how big the mountain is. This is a classic brand who grow macadamia nuts there, they're obviously local and that's why people buy from them. Domain retail.
