Our journey is not just about Alpaca products; it's a tale of heritage, passion, and a steadfast commitment to ethics and sustainability. It started in the vibrant streets of Lima, Peru, where our founder, immersed in the rich culture and tradition of Alpaca craftsmanship from a young age, dreamt of bringing these treasures to the world.
A pivotal trip to Cuzco during high school years transformed this dream into a mission. Witnessing the exquisite artistry and understanding the labor of love behind each Alpaca product, our founder shifted paths from law to international business and marketing, determined to uplift these artisans.
Our founder's early career in an Alpaca company exposed the harsh realities of exploitation in the industry. This experience shaped our core philosophy: to respect and fairly compensate the incredible artisans behind our products
In the serene setting of rural Maine, Peruvian Link was born. A blend of passion for Alpaca products and a love story that crossed continents, it started as a small retail store in Bangor, Maine. Gaining local acclaim, the vision quickly expanded beyond the borders of Maine.
Over the years, Peruvian Link evolved, championed by our founder and her husband. Together, they built a company that not only emphasizes the finest quality but also advocates for the artisans. By involving themselves in every production phase, they ensured that each product embodied excellence and ethical craftsmanship.
Today, Peruvian Link stands as a testament to sustainable and ethical business practices. We work with hundreds of Peruvian artisans, ensuring fair compensation and recognition for their skills. Our reach has expanded from a warehouse in Maine across the USA and Canada, and to customers in Europe, Australia, Japan, and beyond.
At Peruvian Link, every product is a piece of art, reflecting the beauty of Peruvian heritage and the gratitude of the artisans. We're not just selling Alpaca products; we're sharing a story of passion, quality, and ethical business that respects both the environment and the people behind each creation.
Welcome to our journey. Welcome to Peruvian Link.
