Pasha Hawaii is an American shipping company specializing in trade between Hawaii and the continental United States. The current president and CEO of the company is George W. Pasha, IV.




Overview


The firm dates back to 1949, and is now part of the Pasha Group, based in San Rafael, California.
It provides the largest transportation between the USA and Hawaii. The company owns 6 active vessels.
In 2004, the firm commissioned the Jean Anne, a roll-on roll-off vessel.
In 2015, the firm commissioned the Marjorie C a vessel with features of both a container vessel and ro-ro.
In 2015, the firm purchased competing shipping firm, Horizon Lines's, Hawaii operations.
In 2017 the International Organization of Masters, Mates & Pilots (MM&P) filed a complaint against Pasha Hawaii, before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). They asserted Pasha Hawaii was designing two new vessels without sharing blueprints with their organization.
The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported, on September 19, 2017, that Pasha Hawaii announced it had ordered two new vessels to be completed in 2020. Per their report, a third shipping company, TOTE Incorporated, had announced that it too would be offering a service between Hawaii and the continental USA, competing with Pasha Hawaii and Matson.
As of today, the company specializes in the maritime transport and distribution of shipping containers, automobiles, trucks, trailers, Mafi roll trailers, heavy construction machineries and further types of static and rolling freight.




History


The company's roots to Hawaii started during WWII when the troops needed storage services. To accommodate these needs, a station was set up in San Francisco to help the deployed troops. George W. Pasha, the founder, had a large amount of acquired knowledge about the automotive industry and started the company after seeing the demand for storage and transportation. His son George W. Pasha, III, realized the potential of the company and helped formed the company into what it is today.
The company realized that there was a need for shipping goods from Hawaii to and from the Pacific Coast and began Pasha Hawaii in 1999. After creating the company they produced their first ship, M/V Jean Anne. The M/V Marjorie was added to the fleet in 2015 due to the high demand of more shipping between their routes.
In 2015 the company also purchased competing shipping company Horizon Lines.
Pasha Hawaii was providing its Horizon Spirit to help in the Puerto Rico relief effort after Hurricane Maria. The ship transported hundreds of containers from Long Beach, California, to the Caribbean island that was so devastated by Hurricane Maria.
Then later in 2018 the company announced the conversion to LNG with the building of two new ships.
