Parker Ranch – More than a Ranch, A Legacy.
Paniolo Cattle Company is Parker Ranch’s local grass-fed beef program, which launched statewide in 2013-2014. “Paniolo” harkens back to an era where King Kamehameha III brought over Mexican Vaquero to share their knowledge of riding and roping.
Since then, the Ranch has welcomed paniolo from diverse ethnic backgrounds. We are proud of our paniolo heritage and celebrate the various cultural origins of ranching from around the world, which helped to form the roots of many communities like ours in Waimea. In our unique, 175-year history, through many changes and several governments, we have not only survived, but continue to thrive and contribute to our community’s health, education and success.
We are pleased to announce the launch of our television media strategy to promote Paniolo Cattle Company, available to consumers at ALL SAFEWAY STORES across the Islands. We hope you enjoy the two TV spots we produced, as well as the beef! The images portray the emerald green hills and pastures surrounding Waimea where our cattle are raised and our paniolo continue to steward the land. Mahalo to Deedee Keakealani Bertlemann and Shane Hoopai for their input in creating these TV spots.
