\"Hawaii_VPO_sign\"Six Village Post Offices (VPOs) recently opened on three different islands across Hawaii.<\/p>\n

The new VPOs, a pair each on Maui, Oahu and Hawaii Island, bring Honolulu District to a total of seven VPOs.<\/p>\n

Keoki Torres, owner of KT\u2019s Auto Repair and VPO in Hawaii Kai, Oahu, said opening the VPO has generated positive awareness about his business in the neighborhood.<\/p>\n

\"\"When Torres arrived at work the day after the opening, several people were already lined up at the door, ready for business at the VPO. \u201cPreviously these customers were not even aware of our business,\u201d he said. \u201cNow they know we are here not only to provide Forever stamps and flat-rate boxes, but also for all of their auto repair needs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ruth Maeda, manager of Blackie\u2019s Pit Stop IV in Kihei, Maui, had a similar experience. \u201cWe\u2019ve gotten a few new customers who came in because of the VPO banners outside, but it\u2019s our existing customers who are the happiest,\u201d she said. \u201cThey love that we are selling stamps now.\u201d<\/p>\n

VPOs are operated by community businesses and offer select products and services, such as stamps and Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes and envelopes.<\/p>\n
