HAWAII State Incentives

Hawaii's Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) provides a zone that lies outside U.S. Customs territory for tax, duty, and quota purposes-helping companies engaged in international trade significantly reduce their operating costs. The zone and subzone sites are used to store, exhibit, manufacture, assemble, re-label, import, and export products.

The Employment and Training Fund Program provides industry or employer- specific training programs in skill-shortage and high-growth occupational areas. Training and retraining programs are also available to assist workers who have recently become unemployed or are likely to become unemployed.
