Seafood City Supermarket at Maui Marketplace is scheduled to open at 9 a.m. Thursday, August 22, 2024. This popular Filipino supermarket chain is making its grand debut with a 35,000-square-foot full-service supermarket, an authentic Filipino specialty bakery, and a Filipino grill/restaurant. A store blessing was held on Tuesday.

Seafood City Supermarket is known for offering authentic Filipino specialties at affordable prices. Since opening its first store in National City, California in 1989, the chain has expanded its presence to Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada, Washington State and Texas, gaining a loyal following.

Customers will find an extensive selection of fresh fish and seafood, as well as rare fruits and vegetables, premium meat products, baked goods and a wide range of household and kitchen items. The store also has its own health and beauty department and a large terrace for celebrations, birthdays and events.

“We are thrilled to have Seafood City open at Maui Marketplace and join our growing lineup of retailers,” said Sandra Brown, Maui Marketplace property manager. “Seafood City customers will discover a wide variety of authentic Filipino foods, products and dishes.”

Elewin Rebaya, Executive Vice President of Seafood City, said, “At Seafood City, our commitment is to offer a comprehensive selection of ingredients, from nostalgic snacks loved in childhood to expertly prepared frozen and freshly cooked dishes. This variety showcases both time-honored recipes and contemporary culinary trends, highlighting the versatility and richness of Filipino cuisine. We invite you to join us in celebrating the true essence of Filipino delicacies with our esteemed brands: Grill City, Bakers Avenue and Pamana products.”

Rebaya continued, “This new location is not only an extension of our commitment to the community, but also a celebration of the Filipino culinary heritage that we hope will resonate with locals and visitors alike.”
