Established in 1965, Marukai Corporation has operating bases in California and Hawaii and was the first international Japan-based retailer to offer a wholesale market and membership system. Since its early days, Marukai has experienced tremendous success and customer loyalty, which has helped it expand to 11 retail locations in California and Hawaii and more than 160,000 members.
Marukai’s flagship “Marukai Forum” was opened in Gardena, California in 1996 and offers a wide-variety of imported goods, including food, health products, cosmetics, home furnishings, small appliances, electronics, stationery, clothing, kimono, pottery, and assorted sundries. With its 45,000 square feet, Marukai Forum is home to the largest selection of Japanese products in the United States.
In 2013, Marukai joined the unique and wildly successful Don Quijote family of retailers.
By maximizing synergies, management resources, and business know-how, Marukai will continue to offer a truly pleasurable shopping experience and the safe, quality products its members have come to depend on. Marukai is excited about its continued success and new opportunities to provide an even wider selection of products to its customers.
Marukai knows that none of its success would have been possible without its loyal customers and remains deeply grateful to all of its customers for their loyalty and continued patronage.
