About MyCajita
Our inspiration started when Co-Founders Alex and Cassandra went off to find quality Mexican products in their new home. They wanted to mix pieces of their Mexican and Latino culture into their contemporary home and everyday life. They became disappointed to see the lack of available products in Los Angeles. So they went off to the Mexican border to try to find them and came up empty. They also noticed that large chains dabbled in hand-crafted imported products, but the products were limited in assortment and priced as luxury items. It turned out that a big portion of the profits went to the celebrity or business with no credit or commitment to helping the artisans who put years of learning and hard work into building their craft. It was then that the idea for MyCajita was born.
