History
In 1933, Modesta Singson-Gaisano established White Gold Department, Store in Cebu City. After her death in 1981, her five sons—David, Stephen, Henry, Victor and John—pursued their respective retail operations.[1]
Her son, David S. Gaisano, took over the operations of White Gold. In addition, he established DSG Sons Group, Inc. which opened shopping malls in Mindanao under the Gaisano Mall and GMall brands in Davao City (including Toril), Digos, General Santos, Tagum, and Cebu City. GMall's Mindanao branches are some of the biggest shopping malls in the island.[2]
Branches
As of 2026, GMall has six (6) branches, five (5) of which are located in Mindanao, as well as one (1) in Cebu which was rebranded from White Gold Club to GMall Cebu.
