High Traffic: We welcomed more than 23,000 guests in both 2021 and 2022.
Significant Growth: With our multiple revenue stream model, we have achieved year-over-year revenue growth since 2017, even throughout the pandemic. From 2017 through 2022, we achieved a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 28.6%.
Track Record: We are well-established with 17 years in business and we are led by an intergenerational team that combines industry leaders, seasoned managers, and passionate young innovators.
Overview
From a Wholesale Coffee Distributor to an Upscale Agritourism Destination
Heavenly Hawaiian began as a small green coffee wholesale operation in 1998 under different ownership. In 2017, we pivoted to a dynamic farm-to-cup experience with three revenue streams: on-farm retail sales, e-commerce sales, and a coffee club subscription service.
Similar to wine, specialty coffee is an artisanal beverage that is enhanced with greater education and sensory exploration. With this in mind, we implemented farm tours, roasting classes, brew workshops, coffee tastings, live coffee roasting, live art demonstrations, and a farm-side, boutique coffee bar.
THE MARKET & OUR TRACTION
Rising Specialty Coffee and Agritourism Demand Combine for Massive Potential
Heavenly Hawaiian’s coffee beans exceed the Specialty Coffee Association’s stringent quality requirements. The U.S. has the most developed specialty coffee market and specialty coffee has increased its market share from 1% to 25% over the last 20 years. Specialty coffee beverages represent 62% of all cups consumed in the past day, rising from 56% observed in January 2021(Please note that an account is required to access this source).
(source)
Our on-site experiences resonate deeply with our guests, making Heavenly Hawaiian a prime example of a successful agritourism business. The agritourism market was valued at more than $42.4 billion in 2019, and is estimated to exceed $62.9 billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 13.4% from 2021 to 2027 (source).
Since pivoting our business to retail and agritourism in 2017, our customer base has grown tremendously:
- We have organically achieved more than 2,000 ratings with a composite rating
in excess of 4.9 stars across multiple business review platforms. - Our large subscriber base is an effective hedge against the inevitable fluctuation of tourist traffic. Despite global travel restrictions during the 2020 pandemic, our revenue grew 10 percent from 2019 to 2020 thanks to subscription service sales.
- Our email marketing campaign recipients have increased from fewer than 1,000 to over 25,000 in four years. Our campaigns averaged more than $12,000 in monthly sales in 2022.
*The above information is based on internal research and management's experience.
Business model
A Multi-faceted Model Focused on ‘Ohana’
Providing high-quality Kona Coffee will always be a core tenet of our farm, but Heavenly Hawaiian is more than just a coffee provider. Today, we create the ultimate coffee experience. Our mission is to ensure our customers feel like they are a part of our ‘Ohana’, the Hawaiian word for family.
The implementation of our Farmstay apprenticeship program is a unique key contributor to our business model. Qualified applicants from all over the world come to live and work on the farm, while learning about sustainable coffee farming, Hawaiian culture, and world-class customer service. Farmstay members perform field work, hold customer-facing roles as tour guides and baristas, and are the main drivers for forming genuine relationships with guests, making them feel like Ohana.
Our field team and coffee harvesters are key members of our Ohana, earning starting wages more than twice the national minimum wage with an even higher earning potential during harvest. They preserve the health and cultural significance of the land by conducting tests of our volcanic soil and coffee leaf samples, carefully surveying extant and emerging threats.
WHY INVEST
Heavenly Hawaiian has Demonstrated Market Success and we are Well-positioned to Expand
We have identified four improvements that we believe can enable us to capture new growth opportunities and meet demand:
1. Launch new farm management partnerships with local farmers to scale up our coffee supply by up to 50%.
2. Increase farm automation and productivity with modern, upgraded equipment.
3. Expand and remodel our guest facilities by adding tasting lanais, experience centers, and viewing decks.
4. Upgrade and streamline our Customer Relationship Management and Enterprise Resource Planning systems to increase procurement efficiency, new product development, and marketing.
For 17 years, Heavenly Hawaiian has never solicited or accepted outside funding, and we have organically achieved success without significant marketing or internal system investments. There are many coffee farms in the Kona Coffee region, but few directly compete with our proven business model and customer base. We invite you to join our Ohana as we aim to be one of the nation’s top specialty coffee destinations and providers.

Aloha William, I’m proud to be an investor. Now that you maxed out. Are you going to let this round close in 3 days? Or due to the current economic downturn in the USA are you going to take advantage of this opportunity and extend your raise date to raise as much cash as you can this year? I’m asking this because 2023 and 2024 are suppose to be the next 2 years of adversity for the USA before things get better. So Are you closing with the max or are you extending to take advantage of this opportunity to raise as much as you can this round?

DIVERSE INVESTMENTS

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
