About Us
Welcome to Aloha Cut + Cloth!
Aloha Cut + Cloth is a manufacturing company that specializes in cut and sewn soft goods in small batches for micro and small businesses. Aloha Cut + Cloth was created when founders experienced challenges with locating local manufacturers in Hawai’i to produce their own clothing lines. While researching manufacturing facilities, they learned that many manufacturers required high production minimums, which are often unreasonable for those entering the fashion industry in Hawai’i.
At Aloha Cut + Cloth, we recognize the importance of creating ethically made products in Hawai’i. We also know the importance of sustainability practices in manufacturing. We strive to make the manufacturing process easy and efficient for our clients, and keep waste to a minimum. Because of our location, our local clients can feel closer to their product and take advantage of convenient pick-up in Honolulu.
Aloha Cut + Cloth also has a non-profit foundation that partners with community organizations to create new job opportunities and vocational training programs. We believe our efforts will help to reinvigorate the slowing sewing industry in Hawai’i, and increase the production of goods on the islands.
