PRIVATE LABEL KNITWEAR
Qaytu Collection is a Peruvian knitwear manufacturer specializing in private label production for established brands that want to develop their own collection.
We knit, sew, wash, steam, and press over 95% of our garments in our own factory in Arequipa. That gives us control of the full process, with no unnecessary middlemen. Yarns are sourced from selected Peruvian mills, including Inca Tops, Michell, and La Colonial, so we can protect both quality and a fair price for the fiber used.
Every style is checked at each production stage. Catching defects early is part of how we keep the finish consistent.
