Jose, our founder, a Colombian actor weary of the routine and daily stress of life in a bustling city like Bogotá, set out on a quest for a different way of living. Driven by a desire to reconnect with his roots, gain independence, and support his community, he envisioned creating products with a strong natural value proposition. With this vision in mind, he dedicated himself to designing an ambitious business plan that could turn this dream into reality.

COCO SALVAJE became a reality when Anastasia, an adventurous Russian soul, entered Jose's life, encouraging his passion and strengthening his determination to pursue this idea. Jose found in her the love and support necessary to take the leap and bring this plan to live.

Driven by a thirst for growth, they began their journey with the production of coconut oil, an uncommon product in Colombia at the time. Over time, this evolved into a line of clean, all-natural skincare products that met their own needs as consumers. Recognizing the opportunity not only to create products with numerous benefits but also to make a difference, they seized the chance to empower women in their community by generating meaningful job opportunities in a rural area deeply affected by Colombia’s history of violence.

In their quest to reconnect with their roots and embrace their chosen lifestyle, they left the beautiful city of Cartagena for a small village, settling into a wooden house surrounded by nature. Inspired by the symphony of the waves and breathtaking sunsets, they continued to expand their portfolio and attract new clients. Eventually, their success reached a point where not a single extra box could fit into their cozy wooden home.

At this point, they seized the opportunity to purchase a stunning piece of land, complete with two private beaches and ancient trees inhabited by sloths—the perfect setting for COCO SALVAJE headquarters. Thus, construction began. From the outset, they envisioned a laboratory that not only met all sanitary requirements but also embodied their core values of sustainability. The final result exceeded all expectations, impressing even the federal authorities who came to certify the lab.

In their pursuit of expanding their business and allowing more people to benefit from their exceptional products, they launched in the USA and on Amazon. Always seeking new challenges, they continue to grow, bringing the best of the Colombian tropics into homes around the world.
