This past July marked a significant milestone for us at Puro Paradise as we celebrated the first anniversary of our storefront at Plaza Juan Ponce de Leon in Ponce, PR. What a year it's been! From our humble beginnings to becoming a vibrant hub for beach-lovers and art enthusiasts, we’ve come a long way and accomplished so much.
In our first year, we’ve expanded our catalog significantly, now featuring a diverse range of merchandise from several local brands in addition to our own. Our shop showcases products from ACME, Amazonas Accesorios, Art by SD, Choco Art, Starfish PR, and The Clay Hut. We’ve also achieved a major goal by introducing surfboards to our shop, further enhancing our beach culture offerings.
Our storefront has been a birthplace for many new and exciting concepts. One such idea was the Fuimonos Stamp Book—a small concept that evolved into a tangible reality. Launched at our shop, this unique project has received a lot of attention and enthusiasm from our customers.
Additionally, we ventured into creating postcards, with one of our first designs celebrating the home plaza. These postcards have become a popular item, allowing visitors to take a piece of Puro Paradise home with them.
As we look back on this incredible year, we’re grateful for the support of visitors and locals alike, as well as the vibrant community that has embraced us. Here’s to many more years of growth, creativity, and paradise!
