Founded in 2022 by Karla Renteria and designer Gian Franco Reni (deceased), EcoPersona is a sustainable luxury apparel brand headquartered in San Francisco, CA, that is supported by a global community of designers from Peru, Ukraine, Mexico, and other countries around the world and manufactured in Colombia, Mexico, and Guatemala, supporting different communities and extending business to rural areas.
After a year, Maribé and Charin González López enter to partner with Transform Eco Persona growing in impact to change the world’s philosophy “engineered for beauty and protecting the planet.” We take inspiration not only from nature outside of the conventional fashion materials and resources, but also applying circular economy by using recycled materials, innovating with designers and artisans globally.

We have achieved 100% traceability across our entire supply chain, including the pineapple-based materials for our backpacks and totes, as well as the fabrics for our sweaters and scarves—down to the thread, zippers, inner lining, packaging, and the factories where they are produced. Additionally, we have 50% traceability for our artisan-made bags, crafted from organic cotton by skilled artisans in Latin America, and we are committed to further improving transparency in this area.
