AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Tourism Pressure: Hawaiʻi welcomed 772,039 visitors in August, down 5.6% from a year earlier, while visitor spending fell 9.7% to $1.59 billion. Hotel Development: Hawaii Ocean Plaza, behind a stalled Honolulu tower planned for 175 hotel rooms and 216 residences, has filed for Chapter 11 protection, listing $10 million to $50 million in assets and liabilities. Farm Recovery: Aloun Kauaʻi Farming sought $1.85 million in public support after storm damage; the state’s Agribusiness Development Corporation board deferred the request following objections from residents and environmental advocates. Banking: First Hawaiian lowered its 2026 loan-growth target to 1%–2%, citing commercial real estate loan payoffs and other portfolio declines. Jobs: Hawaiʻi’s unemployment rate reached 2.8%, a two-year high.
