Kurmitay

It has been more than fifteen years since we made that important decision in our lives and at that time when we started this project, we lived in Lima. My husband worked at a well-known soft drink company and I was a Personal Banking Business Executive at a financial institution. In 2001, we began to sell garments for ladies and girls woven in pima cotton, hiring workshops, with the idea of exporting them and I had the opportunity to travel to USA in order to look for potential customers for our garments, but after seeing the reality in that country and find out that in order to be able to sell our products to exclusive stores or distributors of such products; it was necessary to attend international fairs whose participation costs did not fall below the US $ 10.000 or we had to contract the services of a designer of that country, something that at that moment we could not assume, reason why I returned to Peru thinking that we had to change of turn to some item that did not involve greater investment. Honestly we were a bit scared. For this reason, my husband began to investigate which export item was growing at the time and discovered that the export of alpaca fur crafts was a good option and we decided to start our business in this new field, researching and learning.
