Pau Hana Surf Supply Launches “Buy it Here, Get it There” Initiative to Improve Board Access for Customers Nationwide

Los Angeles, CA – Pau Hana Surf Supply is pleased to announce the launch of its “Buy it Here, Get it There” program, designed to give customers across the U.S. easier access to any Pau Hana board they want, even if it’s not immediately available in their local area. This initiative addresses a common challenge: the high cost of shipping individual hard boards, which often limits in-store availability to selected models.

Shipping individual boards can be cost-prohibitive for both customers and dealers, as freight expenses are high, and most stores stock a curated selection of boards to best meet local demand. As a result, customers sometimes find that specific models are not locally available. Pau Hana’s “Buy it Here, Get it There” program solves this by allowing customers to purchase any Pau Hana board directly from the website with a flat $99 shipping fee, ensuring that any model is available for purchase, with flexibility for both customers and dealers.

How “Buy it Here, Get it There” Works

1. Order Online with Flat-Rate Shipping: Customers can now browse and buy any Pau Hana board directly from the website. Every order is available for a flat $99 shipping fee, so there are no surprises in shipping costs.
2. Local Dealer Coordination: If a Pau Hana dealer is located nearby, the program gives the dealer an opportunity to fulfill the order locally if they have the board in stock. This lets customers support their local dealer and access their board even faster.
3. Easy, Nearby Pick-Up Options: If a local dealer is unable to fulfill the order, Pau Hana will ship the board to a convenient nearby location, allowing customers to pick up the board close to their area without bearing the high costs of direct-to-door shipping for a single board.

“With the ‘Buy it Here, Get it There’ initiative, we’re giving customers the flexibility to get exactly the board they want, even if it’s not available locally, while keeping shipping costs reasonable,” said Todd Caranto, Founder of Pau Hana Surf Supply. “Our goal is to provide customers with access to our full range of boards and support our dealer network by bringing more customers to their locations.”

Customer Benefits of “Buy it Here, Get it There”

• Access to Any Pau Hana Board: Customers can order any Pau Hana model they choose, expanding their options and ensuring access to boards that might not typically be available locally.
• Convenient Pick-Up Near You: With the option of nearby location pick-up, customers have a flexible, accessible way to receive their board without incurring high individual shipping costs.
• Strengthening Dealer Partnerships: This program allows Pau Hana to support its dealer network by keeping customers engaged with local stores whenever possible, helping to build long-term relationships within the surf and paddleboard community.

Pau Hana’s “Buy it Here, Get it There” program is now available to customers across the United States through the Pau Hana Surf Supply website. Visit Pau Hana Surf Supply to learn more and browse the full selection of boards.
