With the goal of making quality products attainable, Peixoto crafts pieces in small batches within their own factory. Founder Mauricio Esquenazi knew he wanted to create employment opportunities in his hometown of Cali, Colombia - achieving this, the brand's swim pieces have been consciously manufactured since 2011.
Born in Colombia and raised abroad, Mauricio Esquenazi resides in Miami. His travels and love of experiencing other cultures have defined his style and inspired him to create a line of swim and resort wear loved by women around the world. Mauricio grew up running up and down his family’s swimwear and lingerie factory in Colombia. He developed a love for clothing design and committed himself to learning the family business. His passion for the fashion industry and family ties served as the foundation for the creative development of Peixoto™, his own swimwear line.
