International personal care brand Crabtree & Evelyn re-entering Hawaii market


Crabtree & Evelyn, the popular international bath and body products retailer, is returning to Hawaii with a new store at the International Market Place in Waikiki, according to public documents.
Founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts and now owned by Hong Kong's Nan Kai Corp., the company filed a $210,000 building permit Monday with the City and County of Honolulu's Department of Planning and Permitting for its new store at the newly-redeveloped shopping complex that's anchored by Saks Fifth Avenue.
Crabtree & Evelyn closed its lone Hawaii store in 2009 at Ala Moana Center. Nan Kai purchased the personal care brand for about $175 million in 2015. There are more than 200 company-owned stores in over 65 countries selling such items as fragrances, bath and shower gels, soaps, home spa products, body lotions, hand creams and home fragrance, according to its website. Crabtree & Evelyn will join other International Market Place tenants such as Sand People, Seafolly Australia, Shinola, Shoe Palace, Sugarfina and Swarovski.
