Antonio Floirendo, Sr. (November 20, 1915 – June 29, 2012) was a Filipino entrepreneur and landowner whose main business was his 6000-hectare banana plantation in Panabo, Davao del Norte, Philippines, earning him the title as the "banana king" during the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos.[1][2][3] He was among a group of close associates of Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos referred to in media as

“Our thrust is to keep on growing the business,” says Lagdameo, who finished high school and college at the Ateneo de Manila and an MBA at the Columbia University in New York.

But even as the company turned to become a big real estate firm driving developments in Mindanao, Lagdameo said they are always reminded of their roots in agriculture.

“We continue to put agriculture in our projects,” says Lagdameo.

For instance, Damosa is now focusing on the development of AGRIYA, an 88-hectare master planned complex with an agricultural theme. Agriya is located in Panabo, a 20-minute drive from Davao City. It will be an agri-tourism project complete with residential, commercial, school, among other amenities.

Investments for the first phase would be around P3 billion to P4 billion. These include the first subdivision consisting of 177 house and lots, commercial areas, banana and aqua culture and a professional agriculture school.

At Agriya, house and lot buyers are encouraged to devote a portion of their lots to planting vegetables that they can sell to the commercial establishments
