Our Story
Rooted in Colombia. Created for discovery.
COLOMÍA began with a simple observation: the products we loved most from Colombia — the facial oil a friend brought back from Bogotá, the coffee that tasted nothing like supermarket “Colombian”, the mochila that drew compliments on every street in Barcelona — were almost impossible to find in Europe, and when you did find them, nobody could tell you who had made them.
We are a small founding team with roots in Colombia and homes in Barcelona and Liverpool. Between us we have spent years moving between the three, carrying products in suitcases for friends who asked, and wondering why there was no single, beautiful place to find the extraordinary things Colombia makes.
The name is a contraction of “Colombia mía” — my Colombia. It is personal by design. Every product we eventually list will carry a name: the farm, the workshop, the formulator, the weaver. Discovery, for us, means knowing where something comes from and who made it, not just that it is “from Colombia”.
We are starting online, with beauty as our first department, followed by coffee, cacao and food, and then lifestyle and craft. Physical pop-ups in Barcelona and Liverpool will follow. We are pre-launch today — this website is our promise of what is coming, and a way for you to be part of it from the start.
