Love’s Bakery officially closed its doors on Wednesday, wrapping up nearly 170 years of producing classic white and wheat loaves, old fashioned and powdered doughnuts, hot dog and burger buns, bagels and English muffins that became a staple in many households, lunchboxes and family cookouts.
The iconic local bakery had announced March 1 that it planned to shut down and lay off more than 231 employees after losing about 20 percent of its revenue last year due to COVID-19.

Calling the people of Maui County “our greatest strength” over a year of health and economic challenges, Mayor Michael Victorino highlighted the organizations who stepped up to help and the community leaders definining the “new normal” during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Victorino delivered his virtual State of the County address Tuesday night in a prerecorded message from Maui Preparatory Academy’s new Bozich Center, a marked contrast from the speech given in February last year when he spoke to an unmasked crowd at an indoor gym.
