Ayacucho junior
The Ayacucho collection is produced with respect for humans, animals and the planet. All suppliers are required to meet the demands of the international BSCI certificate, with its strict standards related to working conditions and the environmental impact. Ranging from fair wages and correct materials to the environmentally-friendly Bionic Finish Eco used to make our clothing water-repellent. There is also strict control that the down used in Ayacucho jackets is not sourced from live-plucked animals.
And, what’s more, with every Ayacucho product you purchase, you support Solid, an organisation that participates in sustainable community development in India, Kenya and in Ayacucho, the region in Peru, after which our brand was named in 2009.
Ayacucho & Solid
Close ties
Ayacucho was established in 2009 as a partnership between A.S.Adventure and Solid . A.SAdventure wanted to contribute to sustainable development and was attracted by the community work this Belgian organisation is involved in.
Solid is active in, among other places, Ayacucho, a poor and not easily accessible area in the Andes in Peru. Solid wants to give the underpriviliged population a new start by providing training for farmers and running a refuge for teenage mothers. Solid also initiates projects in India, Kenya, Tanzania, and nationally, for underpriviliged adolescents.
Part of the proceeds of each Ayacucho item sold is sent directly to Solid.
