In addition to building a loyal consumer following, the brand has been a pioneer in introducing Peruvian manufacturing capabilities and its unmatched Pima cotton to the rest of the world.

“When we started, people weren’t even sure where Peru is. Now, whether they can pinpoint it on a map or not, everyone is familiar with the extraordinary garments produced in in my home country—and I’m happy to note that Kissy Kissy has been a large part of building that reputation,” says founder and owner Roxana Castillo. “From the first Peruvian Pima cotton baby outfit I touched, I knew moms would love the quality as much as I did. And 16 years later, I’m honored that so many parents have entrusted their little ones to Kissy Kissy.”

What started with Castillo’s search for the best for her first grandson has flourished into a business that helps millions of families around the world fulfill their desire for superb fashions for their new arrivals.

The line is sold in Harrods, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, Le Bon Marché, Harvey Nichols, Mitsukoshi, Mercury and countless independent stores.

“Retailers tell us moms come into their stores looking for Kissy Kissy based on their own previous experiences with the brand or because of testimonials from their friends. We’re very thankful for these word-of-mouth recommendations because they are the best endorsements for what we do and they’ve made Kissy Kissy what it is today,” Castillo says. “I’m not one to put Kissy Kissy in the spotlight, but I wanted to celebrate our accomplishments, and more importantly, thank those who have supported us along the way. It really has been a sweet 16 years.”
