Our story
Giobel Koi Center is a family-owned business located in Tawagan Norte, Labangan, Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. It was founded in 2012 by Giovanni Carlo P. Bagayas, his wife Maybel Marzan, and their daughter May Carl Bagayas. The farm specializes in breeding and selling high-quality koi fish, as well as providing expert advice and support to enthusiasts and hobbyists.
The name Giobel is a combination of “Gio” and “Bel” — the first names of the founders, Giovanni and Maybel. The farm grew out of Giovanni’s passion for koi and his desire to turn that hobby into a business. With Maybel’s business sense and May Carl’s enthusiasm for the venture, Giobel Koi Center has grown into a thriving family enterprise.
We breed our own stock, carefully selecting only the healthiest and most beautiful specimens, and import koi from Japan and other countries to keep a wide variety of high-quality fish on hand. Our koi are raised in well-maintained ponds with clean water, giving them the ideal environment to grow.
Beyond breeding and selling koi, we also help fellow enthusiasts with koi care advice, pond design and construction, and water quality management, and we run seminars and workshops on proper koi care.
We’re proud to have become a trusted name in the Philippine koi community, and we’re always working to earn that trust with every koi we raise and every customer we serve.
