Miyoshiike Co., Ltd.
Miyoshiike is one of the most well known Koi
dealers in Japan as well as all over the world. Miyoshiike has been
dedicated in introducing high quality and healthy Nishikigoi to our
customers. As the result, many of the customers enjoyed many top
awards at Koi shows including All Japan Nishikigoi Show.
Having Taro Kodama as the Manager of International
Service Dept, Miyoshiike started putting her serious efforts to
introduce quality Japanese Koi and products abroad about six years
ago.
Thanks to the advanced technology, communication with
customers was very easy. However, it was not still as easy for them
to obtain such beautiful Japanese Nishikigoi due to the high costs of
transportation. For example, shipping one box to the US from Japan
can easily cost $500.00. Moreover, customers have to pay $100-$200.00
custom broker fee on their ends. So after a hobbyist pay for Koi and
all these shipping costs, the total cost of the Koi becomes
skyrocket. Miyoshiike realized that this high transportation cost
still prevents a lot of Koi lovers from enjoying beautiful Japanese
Koi.
Therefore, Miyoshiike founded a distribution center,
Japan Koi Online, Inc. in California in order to make beautiful
Japanese Nishikigoi more available and affordable.
Once a year vs. 2-3 times every month. 4-10 days in
Sep.-Nov. 65 days in Sep. - Nov.
Other Koi companies may go to Niigata only once a year
to buy Koi in the harvesting season. They spend about 4-10 days with
the guide of their brokers.
Miyoshiike goes 2-3 times EVERY MONTH. Besides,
we spend at least 65 days in Niigata during the harvesting months.
