FITNESS FOREVER

After years of working one on one with clients, veteran personal trainer Chris Green realized that his clients needed an environment where they could expand their knowledge, refine their techniques, and connect with others who are passionate about physical fitness and healthy living.

“My goal is to empower my clients with knowledge, skills, and resources, and inspire them on their road to a healthier and more fit life,” said Greed. Fitness Forever Pāhoa will be an expansion of his successful Kona location. Learn more online.

BANZOS

Chef Stephen Rouelle and Abraham Go, owners of Under the Bodhi Tree, created the concept of Banzos to bring a classic street food, falafel, to Pāhoa using only the freshest and highest quality ingredients.

The menu will consist of traditional flavors with a Hawaiian twist, served in a fun, casual atmosphere. Falafel is naturally vegan and gluten-free. Try it in a wrap, as a slider or waffle, or over one of their hearty bowls, paired with a refreshing mint tea or a creamy coconut shake.

Here is a map of the shopping center and list of current stores planned for the shopping center.
