Our work in Peru

Why Peru?

We conducted a lengthy search for partners aligned to our values. We knew we wanted to align our business with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and expand our impact globally. Peru is known for exceptional craftsmanship and is home to several Fair trade textile and apparel manufacturers. Additionally, Pima cotton grows natively in Peru, and we wanted to include this super fiber in our line.

Conservation

In partnership with our factory, we have adopted seven trees in Peru's lower jungle through the NGO Conservamos por Naturaleza. These trees have been adopted for each member of our families. For us, it was important to help protect the region and the community that our partners call home. Our production partner has helped conserve 500 trees in the region.

Non-profit work

We have selected our production partner based on their commitment to impact. Our production partner has committed to helping several NGOs within their community. We are proud to support our Peru team in their charitable work.
