Why the name MOCO LOCO?
When we decided to open a composites business on Maui. We were looking for a Hawaiian name, one that reflects the Aloha of the Islands and is also tied to the type of work we do. You see, fiberglass work is the use of 2 or more materials to join them in complimentary ways. It's a composite. Well, a Loco Moco, a Hawaiian breakfast is also a composite. Its a Hawaiian composite. Made with more than one item that compliment each other. My intent was to name the company, Loco Moco, but I mixed up the words, like a mixed up Loco Moco and It became Moco Loco, and I thought "Ha, this works for me!"
