F. Business and Production

This section presents tables regarding business establishments and the number of private employers, including totals and a specific breakdown of firms with fewer than 50 employees. Additionally, this section provides data on farm earnings and cash receipts from the marketings of crops and livestock.

Primary sources for these statistics include the Hawaii State Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism (DBEDT),and the U.S. Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. While the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has historically provided agricultural data as part of its personal income series, the bureau discontinued the compilation and release of cash receipts from marketing data on September 27, 2024 for the state and on November 14, 2024 for the counties; farm earnings data remain unaffected by this change.

Due to the recent federal shutdown, many of the federally sourced data releases were delayed. BEA’s “Gross Domestic Product by County and Personal Income by County, 2024” originally scheduled for release on December 3, 2025, have been rescheduled to February 5, 2026. Table F-7 will be updated once these data become available.

For earlier historical periods, agricultural data are summarized in Section 13 of Historical Statistics of Hawaii, while business information is provided in Sections 22, and 23.
