San Lorenzo, known for its wide selection of bikinis, beach and resort wear, and accessories, has five of its suits featured in the current Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.
The business started in 1991 as a small sewing shop in Peru, producing clothing and swimwear, eventually expanding its production facilities to Brazil and more recently to Hawaii. A family business, owners Lisseth Figueroa Moreano and her brother Jonathan live on Oahu, where they operate the stores, while parents Manuel Figueroa and Teodora Moreano live in Peru and manage the factory.
