The Castle & Cooke Legacy.
Castle & Cooke’s roots run deep in the history of these islands— a time-honored legacy spanning more than 157 years and built around our mission statement: investing in Hawai`i, creating communities, and delivering dreams. In short, a legacy of providing for the needs of Hawai’i.
Formed in Honolulu in 1851 by merchant partners Samuel Northrup Castle and Amos Starr Cooke, Castle & Cooke began as a business partnership and has grown into a company of global proportions.
Castle & Cooke, Inc. was incorporated in Hawai'i on October 10, 1995, to be the successor to the real estate and resort business of Dole Food Company, Inc. The Company's diversified businesses include residential and commercial real estate, visitor attractions, resorts, building materials, aviation and renewable energy.
By fostering the development of new business divisions, the Company has adapted its operations to reflect the needs of the community. These strategic efforts have planted the seeds for future innovations that will continue to honor Hawai'i's people and its way of life.
We are proud to be a part of Hawai'i's history and embrace its future.
