Hawaii has 296 active federal alcohol Basic Permits - 23 wineries, 30 distilleries, 109 importers, and 134 wholesalers. That is the 43rd most of any U.S. state or territory.

What is Hawaii's per-capita permit rate?

Hawaii has 20.6 federal alcohol permits per 100,000 residents (U.S. Census Vintage-2023 population), ranking 23rd by density. Per-capita rates are high in wine- and spirits-producing states with smaller populations.

Which Hawaii city has the most permit holders?

Honolulu leads Hawaii with 111 federal alcohol permit holders, followed by Kailua Kona, Hilo, Kahului.

Are breweries included?

No. Breweries do not hold an FAA Basic Permit, they operate under a Brewer's Notice (IRC §6103, protected from disclosure), so they are not in the public TTB List of Permittees this directory is built from.

Where does this data come from?

The TTB FOIA "List of Permittees," published August 2026, public U.S. government data, reformatted without alteration.

Reading Hawaii's count-vs-density split

Hawaii holds 296 federal alcohol permits (#43 of 52 by count) but ranks #23 at 20.6 per 100,000 residents — count rank and density rank diverge on this state. Federal Basic Permits authorize FAA Act activity, not retail sale, and are not a substitute for the state ABC license.
