At your service, Ms.O....!!! :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Hawaiian

"King's Hawaiian is a Torrance, California-based family-owned and operated
bakery, known chiefly for its Hawaiian bread. It was founded by Robert
Taira, in Hilo, Hawaii, in the late 1950s.

Robert Taira founded the company, then called Robert's Bakery, in Hilo,
Hawaii, in the late 1950s.

In the early 1960s, the company moved to Honolulu and changed its name to
King's Hawaiian.

By the 1980s, Taira's company, King's Hawaiian Bakery, was grossing US$20
million annually. In 1988, the company established their current corporate
headquarters in Torrance, California.

Fast food restaurant chain Arby's seasonally sells sandwiches featuring
King's Hawaiian buns. The sandwiches are Kings Hawaiian BLT and Roast Beef
and Swiss (which includes Grey Poupon Honey Dijon mustard). There is also a
seasonally-available King's Hawaiian Fish (which includes a slice of tomato
and a slice of Market Cheddar, along with the usual lettuce and tartar
sauce). September 2014, a Barbecue Brisket sandwich on the Kings Hawaiian
buns was introduced. It is named "BBQ Brisket Sandwich"

In 2016, King's launched a new line of BBQ Sauces consisting of four
flavors; Big Island Lava, Smoked Bacon, Original Sweet Pineapple, and Kona
Coffee.

Marketing
In 2016, King's Hawaiian entered a three story tall float representing the
beauty of the Hawaiian Islands in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The
float included a volcano that erupted confetti and a stage for musical
performers..."
