| La
Llama Place is a family owned and operated retail business which started
in the late 1960's. The |
| idea
began during trips taken to the United States by Clemente and Maria
Revilla from Peru. |
| Mr.
Revilla and his wife visited Ohio on a regular basis. While
visiting their family they decided it |
| would
be a great idea to start importing Peruvian handicrafts and selling them
at local/state fairs |
| and
festivals. The beautiful handicraft items that Peru had to offer
was unknown to many people in the |
| Midwest
area at that time. The demand for the handicraft items at the
fairs and festivals was so high |
| that
the family decided to open a retail store. The first La Llama
Place retail store was opened |
| in
the early 70's at Franklin Square (Franklin, Ohio). After several
years, the Franklin Square location |
| was
closed and in the mid 80's La Llama Place moved to downtown Yellow
Springs, Ohio. |
| |
| As
of today, La Llama Place retail store is still located in downtown
Yellow Springs, Ohio. In 2001, |
|
an online retail/wholesale division named "Pacific Imports" was added to
the business. |
| |
| We
hope that you will appreciate the Peruvian handicrafts we have to offer
at both our retail and online |
| stores
as much as we do. Please don't hesitate to contact
us if you would
like to find out more about us. |

| Sincerely, |
