The Wick Rice Cabinetry Facilities

WICK RICE CABINETRY was established in 1984 by Wick Rice in Keauhou on the Big Island of Hawaii. The original shop was 1400 sq. ft. with a total of 3 woodworkers. The shop specialized in residential cabinetry and furniture using a selection of local wood and other exotics from around the world. The mission of the shop was to be meticulous in the selection of wood, paying particular attention to color and grain matching of each piece. The shop completed between 3 and 4 houses a year.

Twenty five years later, the business is located in the Kaloko Industrial Park north of Kailua Kona in an 11,000 sq. ft. building with state-of-the-art machinery. However, the backbone of the company still remains the excellence of the woodworkers which now number eight. Some have been with the company 20 years. The mission of the shop still remains to craft each job individually with attention to color, grain matching and finish.
