There pineapples were mainly for juicing and for canning . Contracted with Maui Pineapple Company. All the fruit were processed in the Kahului Cannery . They would later start growing fresh fruit which was the Maui Gold variety . They were also known to grow the highly desirable “white “ top or sugar loaf pineapple . Buisness came to a sad end in 2009 when Maui Pineapple Company refused to renew the contract to produce the Fresh fruit .
