“I am an artisan and I have been part of the production of toquilla straw hats since I was 6 years old. Due to low prices and lack of orders, I decided to sell my hats in the city of Cuenca, where I found the company Exportadora K. Dorfzaun. They help us with orders on a constant basis, at a fair price and respect our art. Thanks to this system, K. Dorfzaun has allowed our community to continue with the tradition and receive a fair pay for our work.”

“I plan to open a boutique in two cities of Kazakhstan, Almaty in the south and Nursultan in the north, I hope it will work out soon no doubt your style of work, the quality of hats is the best that I have ever worked with, I worked with Austria as a distributor, with China, India, Russia, now I know Ecuador, I can say you are the best in terms and of the human factor.”

“I have worked at ExportadoraK.Dorfzaun for over 26 years and I have witnessed extraordinary changes to serve clients with their product preference such as color, fashion, and weaving styles. In the factory we give our best effort every day to satisfy our client’s with the best quality and natural materials unique to the whole world, putting emphasis on environmental conservation.”

“Working on this company is my passion as we are related to one of the biggest traditional products of our country, the Panama Hat. It is very interesting to elaborate hats and different accessories from the toquilla palm. We work very closely with the hands of our artisans to accomplish a finished product that gets exported to different parts of the world.”
