Japan
We regularly undertake Spring and Autumn buying trips to Japan taking in farms form both the north and south of the country.
Click here to view KWG NEW 2010 HIGH GRADE JAPANESE KOI STOCKS.
We differ from UK companies by purchasing the Koi directly in Japanese ourselves without using foreign agents.
Our selected Koi are then shipped back to the UK by Taiki Koi Farm, whose owner, Mizolta San was a work colleague of Andrews when he lived on Kamahata Koi Farm in Japan in the late 80s. Ever since then he has been responsible for the export of our Koi stock.
Buying Trips in Japan
Koi Water Garden offers the chance for a small number of customers to experience the fun and excitement of visiting and purchasing High Grade Koi directly from top japanese breeders.
