They are just trying to tap the money that's in HPP before it heads off to Pahoa or Keaau or Hilo. As of the 2010 census..Hawaiian Paradise Park is practically tied with Kailua Kona as the second largest population center on the island. If I were someone with financial means and wanted to make money in a new grocery store business venture...I would want to build as close to the source of that population center as possible and be seen from the highway....not down some side street hidden by tropical foliage that would have unknowing motorists drive right past.
Everyone's gotta eat and spend money on food! But they don't want to spend what money they have left on gasoline to get there.
BTW...If anyone is interested in a Papa Johns Pizza venture (or better yet...an Olive Garden) on the HPP side of Hwy 130....let me know!...(just kidding)
