Our Company

Founded in 1954, Trade Publishing (www.tradepublishing.com) is Hawaii's leading provider of publications serving the construction, hotel, property management and retail food industries. Generations Hawaii is Trade's second consumer magazine (the other, Pacific Paddler, was launched in 1996).

Our Team

In 2002, Art Director Susan Whitney moved to "paradise" from Dallas, Texas, where she had worked as a graphic designer and art director for the American Heart Association National Center In-House Design Agency for almost 20 years.

Ursula Silva, graphic designer, has been with Trade Publishing for 4 years and is responsible for the eye-catching look of Generations Hawaii Magazine. Ursula has been awarded several Pa'i awards in design for Maui Wedding Planner, a Trade publication.

Our Vision

We hope Generations Hawaii will inform, instruct, motivate and entertain you. It will be an enlightening, exciting journey, and we're looking forward to having you there with us.
