Peixoto was founded with a mission: To create high-quality clothing that makes the wearer feel beautiful while doing our part to make the world a better place. At the core of our mission is a commitment to foster economic empowerment, health, safety and equality in all we do.
Our Factory
Location is important. So is supporting our community. When starting Peixoto, Mauricio Esquenazi knew he wanted to create employment opportunities in his hometown of Cali, Colombia. Cali became the heart of our business and home to our production factory. There, we have created an environment of skilled workers who are encouraged to share their knowledge and expertise. From the seamstress to the head designer, each employee has a valued voice at Peixoto. We’re proud to say that after ten years in business, most of our team remains the same, advancing their careers and creating a workplace they call home.
We Take Care of Our Own
We strive to create ethical working conditions and relationshipswith every stakeholder in our supply chain. By owning our factoryin Colombia, we are able to ensure a safe and healthy work environment and competitive wages for our employees. Peixoto employee benefits include: Two weeks of paid vacation, health and retirement benefits, subsidized transportation, 40-hourwork week, plus paid overtime and bonuses.
We Foster Diversity & Inclusion
At Peixoto, we believe inclusivity is just good business. We strive to build a brand that promotes body positivity and embraces peopleof all races, genders and body types. We do this by starting within our company and are proud to have a culturally diverse team of which 90% are women. We believe having representation of people with different backgrounds and perspectives enriches our brand and helps us to produce clothing our customers love and feel good about wearing.
