About us continued:
We come from a trading family that dates back to 1885 in Utrecht, The
Netherlands.
For those who are not familiar with the Dutch Language, the
advertisements were published in the Utrecht’s Newspaper written by
Granddad starting at age 19.
My grandparents ran several businesses including selling butter
(Butterhouse), mussels and herring. Also eggs, cheese, tea, coffee and
cake.
Initiated in 1897 by Grandma, the daughter of a brush maker, they
simultaneous started a Bazaar next door, the first general / super store
in Utrecht, offering all kinds of household items like alarm clocks,
blankets, buckets, brushes, brooms, coffee grinders, you name it.
All their 5 children helped in the fish smelly ice cold storage with
cleaning, packaging and making deliveries to clients and wholesalers.
Their stores were also a neighborhood gathering place for local event
ticket sales.
The old horse tram that connected the city with the rural south started
and ended in front of their shops, situated just outside the the old
city walls and toll bridge. Next door was a large and lively tavern Café
The Swan welcoming thirsty traders, farmers and travelers.
On the other side a pharmacy opened during the First World War where my
father as an unpaid apprentice learned the pharmacy trade and
photography. After the First WW Dad immigrated to Indonesia and opened
his own pharmacy and after the Second WW another in Amersfoort, The
Netherlands.
The Bazaar was extended by my 2 uncles who during the 2nd world war were
hiding their illegal declared radios from the German occupiers by
stacking them between double walls and delivering them to the
resistance.
Some highlights from the late 1800’s advertisements
that you might enjoy:
Real Butter and tasty Cheese came by boat straight from the surrounding
farms, not from a food processing factory.
Ei cadeau =
Free egg or 2. With a certain amount of
REAL butter priced in pounds -note the wide variety of different priced
butter.
Proeven kostenloos =
Free tasting (butter and
cheese).
Concurentie Onmogelijk =
Competition Impossible.
Gaarne wordt de Boter etc, wekelijks aan huis bezorgt =
Butter
etc. weekly delivery free to your home.
Briefkaart wordt vergoed =
Postcard refunded. For
orders received by postcard!!
25 cent voor de flesch terug =
25 cents return for the jar.
The jar filled with 16 herring fish was costing 5 times more than one
herring.
Now one herring costs 5 Euro and a jar around 50cents.

SIPhawaii is a family owned and operated One-Stop e-commerce business
located in Waikiki – Honolulu.
Founded in July 2007. Operating from and registered in the state of
Hawaii.
We are happy and proud “Presenting The Isles' Best” products at down to
earth prices.
Reasons that our products are so reasonably priced is that we don't
waste money on
fancy overhead costs and borrow from the banks, but by streamlining with
suppliers that understand
the needs of small business, being efficient and by doing all our web
site design in-house
- expenses that would have to be passed along to our customers.
Over time, we will frequently extend and update our Hawaiian products
range.
We would like to thank all students that submitted ideas on how to
improve our website,
which over time will be implemented.
As for now we will leave our 4 year old home page as it is to allow and
encourage other
students to make improvements as well. If our day only had 72 hours…
We've built up a strong following of customers, with international
testimonials.
Many of them are amazed at the competitive prices and the speed that
with we deliver.
Why is our business not advertised locally?
The answer is we are a family business and very down-home and low-key.
We believe that if you treat customers well with fair prices and good
friendly service,
supplementing relevant information, those customers will tell their
friends about our site,
and will continue to be good customers themselves.
If you have a problem with our service, give us the opportunity to fix
it.
Email us at customerservice
siphawaii·com.
In our 5 year history, USPS has delivered all orders, worldwide, within
their timeframe.
For those interested in the origin of our company name and pink buttons,
and in the ‘free shipping myth’
please read the info near the bottom of our Home Page.
We hope your visit here was both interesting and informative.
Mahalo nui loa for shopping with SIPhawaii●com | ShopInParadise●com
