Modular Hawaii's Inspiring Journey of Growth and Gratitude
New units available for lease or sale, delivered by a trusted, local team committed to fast, high-quality portable space solutions
As the season of gratitude unfolds, Modular Hawaii reflects on the extraordinary journey that transformed a simple concept into a fully operational modular company. Under the leadership of founder Mike Fox, this remarkable venture has secured contracts extending into the future, demonstrating the strength of trust and community support.
Fox’s appreciation for the people who have supported him along the way is evident. “How does a business launch in six months?” he asked. “It begins with gratitude and those who have been there from day one.”
This season, Fox is paying tribute to those individuals who helped launch Modular Hawaii. His first call went to Lloyd Kandell, a longtime agency partner who instantly rallied support from others, including Melinda Mullis, founder of OrangeRoc. Together, they amalgamated years of experience and expertise to make Modular Hawaii a reality.
“This time, it felt different,” Fox recalls. “It wasn’t merely about starting a business; it was about creating opportunities. My original team—Edie Nakoa, Guy Murakami, Mike Rabang, and Kimo Nakoa—are working towards future ownership, acknowledging their essential part in my success story.” He emphasizes the value of community and friendships in the operational success of any business, stating, “We all thrive when we collaborate and lift one another.”
From concept to reality, Modular Hawaii has already signed contracts for multiple immediate-delivery projects. A team member expressed the importance of gratitude, stating, “Understanding our strengths allows us to serve our customers with exceptional care. We aim to be human-centric, believing that every space we deliver supports people and their purposes.”
Modular Hawaii caters to a variety of clients, including educational institutions, healthcare providers, construction teams, government sectors, and event organizers across the state. Their portable solutions offer a practical alternative to traditional construction, ensuring prompt service and deep familiarity with local logistics.
In addition to their operational success, Modular Hawaii is making strides in community involvement. Guy Murakami spearheads the company's sponsorship initiatives, including a partnership with Friends of Hawaii Charities at the Sony Open in Hawai'i. This collaboration underscores the company’s commitment to supporting local communities. In January 2026, they will sponsor the event by providing nine fully furnished modular units for the PGA Tour, reinforcing a dedication to events that enhance Hawaii's cultural and economic landscape.
“It’s a privilege to support such a beloved event that connects people and showcases Hawaii’s finest,” said Guy Murakami, Sales Manager at Modular Hawaii. “Providing these modular units is not just a service; it’s our way of giving back to an event that positively impacts our islands.”
