Nakasone Slaughterhouse

Nakasone Slaughterhouse, doing business as Nakasone Meats Co., is a USDA-inspected establishment at 43 B. Ulunui Pl. in Pukalani, Hawaii, in Maui County. It operates under establishment number M12448 with a grant of inspection dated June 18, 2020. FSIS lists its activities as meat slaughter and meat processing, and classifies it as a very small establishment.

The plant reports hogs as the species slaughtered under federal inspection, and its FSIS slaughter volume category is 1, meaning under 1,000 head per year. It also reports custom-exempt slaughter, in which animals owned by the customer are processed and the packages are marked Not for Sale. A secondary directory listing describes the plant as providing livestock slaughter and processing services serving Maui and nearby areas. Some listings give a Makawao mailing address, PO Box 213, alongside the Pukalani street address.

The federal record lists hogs as the species slaughtered under inspection at this establishment, with an annual volume under 1,000 head. Both federally inspected slaughter and custom-exempt slaughter are reported, so a producer may be able to have animals processed either for sale under inspection or for personal use with packages marked Not for Sale. Booking procedures, lead times, minimums, kill fees, cut and wrap charges, and whether other species are handled are not stated in any source on file. Contact (808) 572-8501 to confirm scheduling and whether work is being accepted.

Nakasone Slaughterhouse reports custom-exempt slaughter to FSIS, which means it can process an animal a customer already owns (a whole, half, or share bought before slaughter) and return it in packages marked Not for Sale. Most small farms have one or two plants they book with, and the plant's calendar decides the delivery date.
