Abstract
Approved for Criterion A (Historic Events and Patterns). This building is significant on the local level for the period of 1933 when the Sueoka Store started leasing the property and 1953 when the Sueoka Market began occupying the entire store and celebrated the second grand opening. The Sueoka Store, when located in the “Japanese camp” of the Koloa Sugar Plantation, offered general supplies and goods to the Japanese workers there until it moved to its current location on Koloa Road. The Sueoka Market has remained in its current location for 85 years and is still operated by the descendents of the Sueoka Family.
