Gaisano Mall of Davao^[1] (branded as GMall of Davao), is a major shopping mall located along J.P. Laurel Avenue, Bajada, Davao City, Philippines, part of the Gaisano Malls operated by DSG Sons Group, Inc. with a total floor area of 240,605 m² (2,589,850 sq ft)

The mall opened on April 20, 1997, with only 4 floors.

It is the largest of more than 40 Gaisano malls in the Philippines and the largest mall in Davao City and in Mindanao.^[2]

The 6-story mall houses about 620 to 700 retail stores and shops. It consists stores and restaurants, a department store, a supermarket on the ground floor, and a cinema on the top floor. It also has an arcade. It is the only mall in Davao City that has a Red Carpet Theater - a luxury movie theater with leather couches.^[3]

At the topmost part of the mall is "The Peak" which is located at 6th level, a new attraction for shoppers, which was intentionally built to compete with SM City Davao's The Annex, SM Lanang's Fountain Court and Abreeza's high-end restaurants. This also houses Monster BT 99.5, an FM radio station owned by Audiovisual Communicators, where its studio and transmitter are located.

After series of suicide incidents inside Gaisano Mall, the management has put barriers on the fifth floor of the mall to further avoid fatal incident in the future.^[4]

• The mall was subjected to one of the two terrorist bombings that occurred on September 17, 2013,^[6] the other one being at SM City Davao. It happened during the time of armed crisis in Zamboanga City, which involved elements of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF); however, the MNLF Davao Regional Command denied that they were behind the bombings.
