OMOSAKO KOI FARM was founded in Kure City, Hiroshima Pref., to sell Nishikigoi in 1960.

Enchanted by Nishikigoi, Ryuzo Omosako, the founder, made strides to promote Nishikogoi sales here.
Driving a truck for hours with a water tank, he brought back Nishikigoi from Ojiya City, Niigata Pref., the place of origin of Nishikigoi.

From the very beginning, each Nishikigoi has enchanted people by its one and only pattern. No Nishikigoi has the same pattern as others.

Among many Nishikigoi breeds, ‘Shiro-Utsuri’, with its patterns consisting of black and white, is a key breed to us.

At present, our koi farm is located at Tochihara Cho, Kure City, specializing in producing ‘Shiro-Utsuri’, shifting our business more to production from distribution.

Awarded in ‘Shiro-Utsuri’ category for 12 consecutive years

Our ‘Shiro-Utsuri’ has come to win more prizes at different fairs recently.
Among others, at annual ‘All Japan Comprehensive Nishikigoi Fair’, the most authoritative contest in the world, we have won the ‘Grand Prize’ for 12 consecutive years in the category of ‘Shiro-Utsuri’.
We would like to thank all the people concerned with Nishikigoi and the fans in particular for appreciating our years long endeavour.

Nishikigoi grows day by day

Breeding technology and its equipment are also making progress

We are resolved to make a progress step by step with a view to enchanting every visitor at the first sight of our Nishikigoi.

We would request you to continue to support us.
