DALLAS – The Hawaii Consolidated Exchange has been named among the best in the world, receiving the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s highest honor, the Director/CEO Cup.
The Hawaii Consolidated Exchange—which encompasses main stores on the Hickam side of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and Schofield Barracks, 11 Expresses, specialty stores, military clothing stores, theaters, restaurants and more—was recognized for its exceptional service to the military community during the Department of Defense retailer’s managers’ conference in Frisco, Texas.
Garrison Commander Col. Steve McGunegle wrote a letter in support of the Hawaii Consolidated Exchange’s nomination.
“AAFES is an exemplary team of professionals who display their expertise and a genuine desire to provide superior support and service to the Hawaii military community each and every day,” McGunegle wrote. “The AAFES team is always willing to participate and support our service members and families however they can.”
McGunegle also commended the Exchange for its opening of several new services, including Panda Express, Bing Bros, Dominos, Hunt Brothers Pizzas, the car wash and more, as well as for their support of community events.
“Hawaii Exchange associates are incredibly passionate about taking care of our shoppers,” said Hawaii Consolidated Exchange General Manager Michael Ryan. “We’re honored to be recognized and look forward to continuing to provide the best service to the best customers in the world.”
One winner and one runner-up were awarded the Director/CEO Cup in each of four size categories, based on sales volume: Super, Large, Medium and Small. The Hawaii Consolidated Exchange was the winner in the Super category.
The winners were chosen from among 94 eligible stores based on customer experience, leadership, business results, marketing efforts and community presence.
In Hawaii, authorized patrons have four Exchanges they can shop at:
- Hickam
- Marine Corps Base Hawaii Kaneohe (not an AAFES facility)
- Navy Exchange (not an AAFES facility)
- Schofield Barracks
