Our story

From a home-based business to a regional company

Three generations building REYA: the story of a family business that has reinvented itself time and again.

  1. 1987

    A family venture

    It all starts in a corner of the family home, making baby clothes — the beginning of what would become the Cri-Cri children's clothing brand.

  2. 1989

    REYA de Costa Rica S.A. is founded

    The company is formally incorporated and begins supplying supermarket chains nationwide.

  3. 1999

    Our own plant in San José

    After buying the land in 1998, the company opens its own plant — a family dream come true.

  4. 2001

    The shift to consumer goods

    As the textile industry declines, the company reinvents itself: it launches its first private-label brand in Costa Rica and invests in a factory in China.

  5. 2006

    Regional expansion

    A private-label aluminum foil program for a global retail chain in Central America and Mexico, plus new clients in Honduras, El Salvador, Panama, and the United States.

  6. 2013

    New lines, third generation

    Cooking oils from Argentina are added to the portfolio, and the family's third generation comes on board.

  7. 2014–2020

    Steady growth

    Charcoal briquettes from Paraguay, a PVC line for the institutional market, and new launches that keep expanding the catalog.
