Before For J's was founded, Janis Tanga found great pleasure and excitement in sharing recipes and new discoveries with friends as well as family. Her family recipes have been shared with many family get together as well as pot locks at parties. Many times from the enjoyment of eating this dish, Janis would get requests for the recipe or even catering the dish. They urged Janis to package some of these culinary delights as a convenience in their hectic lives. Soon For J's the company was "born". For J's Hawaii, Inc. was founded in June of 2001 on the island of Oʻahu in Hawaiʻi

At For J's Hawaii, their goal is to produce gourmet salts and sugars that noticeably enhance your food. Always a stickler for quality, they use only all natural ingredients in their Garlic, Maui Onion, and Hawaiian Chili Pepper infused sea salt and natural flavoring in their infused sugar.
