Top 250

Survey Period: March – May

The Top 250 is a prestigious list of Hawai‘i’s biggest companies and nonprofits ranked by total gross sales, a key indicator of market share and influence. We have begun our survey process to compile the next Top 250 list. If you think your organization belongs on this list, please register today for our survey. If your organization has been on the list in years prior, you or someone at your company likely has already received a survey and you do not need to re-register. Uncertain, or cannot find the email link to the survey? Reach out to Managing Editor Cynthia Wessendorf. Here is a recent Top 250 list.
