Customer of the Quarter

Shari Saiki Design Studio

In our past issues, this space has been dedicated to profiling a "customer" who has been a long time supporter of PAL and our products. Their consistent sales figures have been an important
reason for our success.

There is another segment of our clientele whose actual purchases at PAL may barely be noticeable but whose contribution and support are no less valuable. At PAL, we see our relationship with architectural and design firms as the life breath of our growth and
Shari Saiki is one of many who stand out in this regard.

Shari started in the industry as a draftsperson for Mark Masuoka Design and worked her way into a position as a lead interior designer for the firm that was one of the tops in the industry. After ten years with Masuoka, Shari decided to strike it on her own rented a cubicle in a co-op office for $500 a month. She never looked back. Along the way she developed her own unique style that she calls Contemporary Pacifica and word spread that there was something new and exciting coming out of her design studio.

Share now operates out of a two-story office/showroom on Pohukaina Street and is recognized as a leader in the interior design field. Her abilities have not gone unnoticed by her peers as the recent deluge of industry awards prove. Shari's back-to-back "Parade of Homes" Grand Champion Awards in 2001 and 2002 for her work on the Stanford Carr Development's Peninsula sub-division in Hawai'i Kai are just two examples of the trend setting vision she is imparting on residential design. We are sure there is more to come.

Congratulations Shari and thank you for your continued support!

Keahi Meyers

Get to Know One of Our PALs

Kulia 'I Ka Nu'u ...Strive for the Highest

If you've been in our warehouse or taken a delivery from us in the past six years, there's a good chance you have run into Keahi Meyers. One of a long list of Kamehameha Schools graduates to make their way to PAL, Keahi thrives on being the first to offer a handshake and a morning greeting to the PAL staff.

As we move into the New Year, we hope that Keahi's friendly demeanor and concern for customer service will be a great addition to our outside sales force. Keahi will be calling on many of our general contractors and cabinet shops. With knowledge of our products and operations, we are sure he will be very successful.

When he isn't working, Keahi enjoys spending time with his family, surfing, and pursuing his second career as a musician. His band, Lilikoi Boys, has played at many PAL functions and has also played gigs at local nightclubs. They recently played at Tiki's Bar & Grill this past New Year's Eve.

Keahi has worked hard these many years and is always striving for more. He is looking forward to this new opportunity. Please welcome him into your shop. And maybe if you're lucky, he might play you a tune on his 'ukulele.
