## Resource

Thirty-nine Maui workers feared losing their jobs when HC&D’s assets were bought by Nan Inc., but their dedication paid off—every single employee kept their position. The company officially shut down on July 24th, but reopened the next Monday as Kahale Concrete under Grace Pacific LLC, honoring years of service and ensuring continuity. Workers, some with decades of loyalty, celebrated staying on the job, with one calling it “living out a big video game.” The transition, smooth and intentional, preserves a 118-year legacy of blue-and-white trucks on Maui roads.
