Second hand children's store opens in Lima

peru

PRESS RELEASE/LivinginPeru.com

La Ronda de los Niños is a new store specialized in buying and selling products for babies and children. It is born from the idea of two friends, Stéphanie and Alexandra, who think that the second hand business is an absolute necessity nowadays. It has three main advantages:

The store's concept allows to offer to families high quality products at economic prices and to offer original and sometimes unique products that come from everywhere in the world (United States, Europe and Japan, for example). Moreover, by selling the things they do not need, families can earn extra money.

Secondly, La Ronda de los Niños helps protect the environment. Reusing children’s stuff contributes to reducing the consumption of plastic and other harmful products. The shop´s owners think that it is their responsibility to transmit a better and healthier world to the children and to educate them in that way. Following this philosophy of life, La Ronda de los Niños also offers new eco-friendly products as organic cotton clothes for all the family, wooden toys, bags made with recycled materials etc.

Finally, La Ronda de los Niños owners are also willing to help disadvantaged children. That is why the sales are organized to benefit the social institution La Casa Hogar los Gorriones de Ayacucho and donations for them are welcome (clothes, toys, books, everything for children etc.).

Where and how can you find La Ronda de los Niños?
• Sales by internet : www.larondadelosninos.com. Also on Facebook.
• By appointment: Calle Enrique Palacios 758, Miraflores.
• Sale on the last Saturday of each month (from 10 am to 6 pm), in Miraflores, Calle Enrique Palacios 758, in front of Papa John´s restaurant, Av. Comandante Espinar.

The next sale is planned for Saturday, April 30, 10 a.m.-6 p.m.

English, French and Spanish spoken. Do not hesitate to contact Stéphanie or Alexandra (info@larondadelosninos.com)

I was told some time ago that in Lima it was against the law to open second hand stores. I thought this to be odd as it could be a very good paying business. But then again this is Lima were talking about.

Good luck with the store!

David,

It's against the law to sell second-hand clothing in Peru.
