Retail51-200 Employees

Martin & MacArthur is Hawaii’s premiere fine furniture maker and purveyor of exquisitely crafted furnishings for gracious Hawaiian living. Koa, the wood of Hawaii’s Ali’i and Monarch. Jon Martin started the company back in 1961, at a time when Koa wood and Koa furniture was undervalued and widely ignored, largely because of the popularity of cheap plastic and metal furniture from the mainland. Today, Martin & MacArthur employs over 70 professionals with highly specialized skills in the art of crafting fine furniture and home accessories. Locally born, part-Hawaiian, Michael Tam, is now the majority owner of Martin & MacArthur. All Martin & MacArthur furniture is still made here at our Honolulu, Hawaii workshop, unlike all other furniture retailers that import from China and Indonesia. We invest in local industry, including harvesters on Hawaii Island and inter-island shipping companies such as Young Brothers. We have recently purchased state-of-the-art equipment to make the cutting and sanding processes highly efficient. We use best-in-class, computer assisted design (CAD) programs and technology to design every piece of furniture, adhering to the detailed specifications of each customer.
