Piaya Network Brief History

We learned that it was during a father and son one on one conversation that Piaya Network was created. Mr. Anthony Leo Aguirre (owner) proposed the idea to his father, Mr. Antonio Aguirre, to create a network that could promote Bacolod City as a Tourist Destination. His father saw great potential in the idea and gave his full support. They recruited competent veterans and young professionals to the team to provide quality excellence in their programs. The network was named ‘Piaya’ after the very popular unleavened flatbread filled with muscovado sugar which is native to Bacolod City.

Piaya Network was formally launched on August 23, 2014 at the District North Point in Talisay City. Since then, they continue to cater to the local scene in order to promote Negros as a grand destination for Tourism, Food, Arts and Sports.
