House of Mana Up Launches Shoppy Hour: A New Way to Discover Hawai Brands in Waikiki

Written by House of Mana Up

House of Mana Up at Royal Hawaiian Center is turning weekday afternoons into a celebration of local flavor with the launch of Shoppy Hour—a new in-store experience in Honolulu featuring free samples, giveaways, and exclusive deals on Hawai‘i’s favorite local brands.


Happening week days from 4 PM to 6 PM, Shoppy Hour invites guests to explore products from over 100 Hawai‘i-based companies. Shoppers can sip, sample, and save while discovering the stories behind the brands that cover everything from food to fashion, wellness, beauty, art, home decor and more.


“We created Shoppy Hour as a fun, high-energy way to help more people experience what makes shopping local in Hawai‘i so special,” said Meli James, co-founder of Mana Up. “It’s all about creating everyday moments of connection—to our entrepreneurs, our culture, and the incredible products born here in the Islands.”


Shoppy Hour was designed to bring new energy to late afternoon shopping, giving visitors and kama‘āina a reason to stop by, try something new, and engage more deeply with the local makers and flavors that define the House of Mana Up experience.

Not only are you building a beautiful gift, you're also supporting small businesses, creative artisans, and families across the Islands.

House of Mana Up offers a variety of locally sourced gifts from Hawaii brands.

Guests can sample popular varieties like Papaya Guava, Pineapple Ginger, Mango, Lilikoi, Dragon Fruit and more, all crafted to complement everyday meals with a kick of aloha.


The House of Mana Up team will also offer perfect pairing recommendations—ideal for gift-giving or elevating your next meal.
