DID YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE ONE OF THE FIRST SWIMWEAR & BEACHWEAR
MANUFACTURER IN LATIN AMERICA TO BECOME A CERTIFIED B CORP?
We are excited to tell you the Good News! So far, joining a worldwide movement of more than 4,000 companies that want to be the best for the world, not just the best in the world, is our most recent and biggest accomplishment. We are a mission-driven company that balances profit and purpose, just like other B corps. We follow the highest social and environmental standards so that the planet and our people can benefit.
“It has been a long journey to get here…. our certification process began in 2019 when we approached the B assessment. It defined the path for the following years, and it has been our lighthouse. The environmental and social consciousness we developed daily, along with our employees, suppliers, and community, has been vital to become part of this movement.”
