OUR STORY
Peruvian Traditions emerged from an unwavering passion for the world's finest materials, a commitment to high quality, and a strong focus on social and environmental sustainability.
We take pride in celebrating the craftsmanship behind our clothes. Our mission is to provide ethical services, champion fair trade, and ensure the production of safe alpaca clothes and accessories.
DRIVEN BY PASSIONAND PURPOSE
We were partners and best friends since childhood. After completing school, we both pursued studies in International Business Administration, nurturing the dream of one day having our own company. Over the years, we gained expertise in our respective paths, and our journey in the fashion industry began in 2014.
INSPIRED BY THE ANDES, CRAFTED WITH TRADITION
We chose to embark on numerous research trips through the Andes of Peru, determined to discover the finest craftsmen, raw materials, and suppliers. Our goal was to offer customers optimal manufacturing solutions using alpaca fiber.The vibrant world of colors and textures we encountered during these journeys left us in awe. The versatility and softness of alpaca yarn were truly unbelievable. In 2015, inspired by our discoveries, we founded Peruvian Traditions S.A.C.
FROM EXPERTISE TO ALPACA LUXURY
In 2016, with newfound expertise and after completing several design courses, we embarked on the journey to create our private label, NORGÄTE. Our vision was clear: to craft timeless garments—pieces that would not only stand the test of time but be cherished for years, even decades. Each NORGÄTE garment is thoughtfully designed to combine durability with beauty, created to accompany you on all of life’s adventures.
Our collections, jointly designed by both founders, reflect a perfect balance of simplicity and luxury, offering functional yet elegant alpaca clothing. Meanwhile, through our sourcing company, Peruvian Traditions, we export to major markets such as the United States, Canada, England, Spain, Finland, and Chile, achieving a steady 30% annual growth. This growth has positively impacted the lives of our knitters, providing them with stable work and supporting their communities
NORGÄTE’S CROATIAN MILESTONE
In 2022, Norgate j.d.o.o. expanded its footprint in Croatia by founding a European branch, marking a crucial moment in our journey. After six years of dedicated commitment and the successful creation of five remarkable collections, we have established ourselves as a distinctive presence in the fashion industry. Specializing in high-quality alpaca clothing, our European branch embodies the culmination of years of passion and expertise.
