KTA Super Stores' history goes back to 1916 when Koichi and Taniyo Taniguchi established a small food store in Hilo, Hawaii to serve sugar plantation workers. The K and T in the name were for the founders, with an A being used to differentiate from any stores using the other initials.[1]
The original KTA was destroyed in the tsunami of the 1946 Aleutian Islands earthquake. After reopening, it expanded into a supermarket.[2]
