About

My name is Mario, I was born  in a small town under the high mountains in Peru, my father was an artisan continuing the Inca tradition, in the making of alpaca wool clothing items such as ponchos, sweaters, capes, hats, gloves and more. 

Since I was a child I learned from my parents to be an artisan. after having worked in my country for many years. Then I came to Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States in 2000. Then I set up my workshop to make clothes such as jackets, sweaters, ponchos, hats, scarves.

Then, in 2008, I founded my business under the name Andes Store to sell beautiful alpaca wool garments at craft and state fairs on the internet too. 

Now together with my team we face the challenge of the future
