HI SB2913

Establishes penalties for false labeling of Hawaii-grown roasted or instant coffee, ranging from $1,000 for a first violation to $25,000 for a fourth or subsequent violation within ten years.

Requires roasters and manufacturers to maintain two-year records of coffee volume, geographic origin, and regional origin for department enforcement purposes.

Prohibits use of geographic origin designations on labels unless coffee meets specific percentage thresholds (100% for single-origin claims, minimum 10% for blended products) and grade standards.

Restricts placement of geographic origin names on front label panels and trademark usage to ensure compliance with identity statement requirements.
