Big Isle program to show isle goods

"Hawaii Recalls," a Big Island-based production that will market Hawaii-made products and services on the PAX TV network, begins weekly Sunday broadcasts Sept. 12.

Hosting the half-hour program will be former Hawaii television news reporter John Noland and Miss Hawaii USA, Trini Kaopuiki.

"Hawaii Recalls" will take viewers through a local-style shopping adventure with vendors supplying stories around their product offerings.

A toll-free number will connect viewers calling for telephone orders. In addition, a Hawaii Recalls Shopping Center website -- still under construction -- will display vendor products and provide added online method of ordering.

The PAX TV network reaches 130 cities in the United States and an estimated 15 million viewers. "Hawaii Recalls" is sponsored by the Big Island Visitors Bureau, Hawaiian Airlines and SaveOnTaxes.com.

Official announcement of the show is scheduled to take place Tuesday.
