decades.
While the Filipinos continue to rebuild their lives post war, CBK Hardware sees the opportunity to
introduce the retail concept once unheard for in hardware industry. Cobankiat Hardware brought
the first DIY business in the Asia. A do it on yourself concept that created Cobankiat hardware in the
Philippines. The Hardware Workshop Store is the fruit if this endeavor. CBK Hardware further cemented
its legendary distribution channel with the creation of Coby’ Design Center in Edsa Shangi La in 1996, a
specialty store that caters to discriminating taste of modern Filipinos.
In 1997, Mr. Johnny Cobankiat, the 4th generation Cobankiat leader, set another milestone for the
company when he brings a franchise of Ace Hardware USA to the Philippines, and signs up CBK Hardware
as one of its major suppliers. This further expanded into delivering quality world class products nearer to
