  • 1920s-1930s: The company expands its pineapple operations across multiple Hawaiian islands and develops marketing campaigns to popularize pineapple consumption in the mainland United States.
  • 1950: The Dole Pineapple Plantation opens as a roadside attraction in Wahiawa, featuring gardens, fruit stands, and tours to educate visitors about pineapple cultivation.
  • 1989: The plantation is revamped into a full-scale tourist destination with the addition of the Pineapple Express Train, the Plantation Garden, and the world-famous Pineapple Garden Maze.
