We Are Going to the Market!
February is a special month when people in the United States and various places throughout the world celebrate love.
At Shop LOHAS World, we – Hugo Almeida, Steven Aguilar and Giovanna Aguilar – celebrate this month with the launch of Shop LOHAS World, an e-commerce platform created by three Ecuadorian-Americans, from diverse industries, connected by our friendship and profound appreciation of our heritage and mission to bring to the United States and international markets premium natural products made with sustainable environmental practices.
The Story Behind Enjoy & Live
Enjoy & Live is the first product line that we are rolling out, and we couldn't be happier and prouder to share its origin story.
Juanjo Cueva founded Enjoy & Live in Ecuador after embarking on a journey from his native Cuenca in the Andes to Seoul in South Korea. Inspired by his father's professional background as a chemist, Juanjo was eager to specialize in the latest and best treatments for healthy skin while studying for his master's in Asia. His goal was to apply his insight into creating a brand committed to social impact by working directly with the communities in the Amazon and the Andes, cultivating the raw-natural materials he would include in his skincare line. With Dr. Adriana Paulovic, Ph.D., a former chemist and technical director for Shiseido, a U.S. ex-pat living in Ecuador, he formulated Enjoy& Live's skincare regimen.
Commitment to Socially Responsible Product Sourcing and Brand Quality
Correspondingly, as an e-commerce marketplace driven by a lifestyle of health and sustainability, LOHAS's mission is to amplify best practices that support local economies in the underserved communities producing the raw materials that go into the products we make and consume. As conscious consumers, too, we acknowledge that each of us can foster a healthier and greener world when we better understand what goes into what we purchase.
As we at Shop LOHAS World begin our journey with your support building an online retail community, we look forward to sharing with you beyond the products that we sell. We will also invite you to amplify our shared love of social impact and the environment through stories, recipes and special events throughout the coming months.
Thank you for stopping by and Shopping LOHAS World. We look forward to hearing from you!
The Founders,
Hugo Almeida, Steven Aguilar and Giovanna Aguilar
