Product Description
by Mark Hansen (Illustrator), Steve Akley (Author)
Small Brand America III follows up the first two books in the series by examining 25 more companies taking on much larger competitors on the playing field of grocer's shelves. Each of the companies featured in this edition is based out of Hawaii. In our 50th state, they face the additional obstacles of higher costs and the challenges of being separated from the U.S. Mainland by the Pacific Ocean. Despite all of the adversity and challenges they face, there are still companies thriving in the Aloha State and Small Brand America III - Special Hawaii Edition takes a look at them. The Small Brand America series not only looks at the brands from the perspective of the product, but the people behind them as well. With a read of Small Brand America III, you walk away with not only a greater appreciation of these small brands, but the people behind them as well.
