"I thought it'd be such a good idea to create like a creamy Otter Pop," explained 13-year-old Kekai Keala.
"In Hawaii, with my grandma, we made these ice cups which is a little popsicle in a cup, and I thought it would be fun to put them in a little baggy and then start selling them at sports events," he said.Four years later, his business has grown to start serving at events and parks across the state. To keep up with the demand, Kekai and his family make over a 1,000 Kai Pops a week.
His Kai Pops truck brings sweet icy treats to local neighborhoods, but Kekai says it's not just about the popsicles, it's also about sharing the aloha.For Keala's brother and mom, Aisha, sharing the aloha also means love and sharing their family's Hawaiian culture. Even after collaborating with Utah's soda wonder, Swig, and some of Utah's favorite influencers, Kekai is still thinking of growth opportunities for his family-operated business.
