Our grandfather, Wah Kam Chun, came to Hawaii with an idea and a lot of ambition, but little else.  After years of hard work, he opened the first Chun Wah Kam Noodle Factory in 1942 located in Honolulu’s Chinatown.  His goal was to provide noodle products to restaurants and markets all across Hawaii.  His philosophy for cooking was simple: products made-from-scratch and from locally sourced ingredients make better food.

As his business expanded, Wah Kam needed more space, and, during the 60’s he moved his shop to McNeil Street in Kalihi.  Then, in 1979, the noodle factory was moved down the street to its present location at 505 Kalihi Street, where we still make all of our noodle products fresh everyday.
