Our
Company (Perlas Únicas S.A. de C.V.) was established on May
2004 as a private venture that evolved from the experimental
project known as "Perlas
de Guaymas" which was funded by ITESM in March of 1996,
but actual pearl culture research began back in 1991.
On February 2005, ITESM's company was finally sold to a group of private investors and is now poised for a complete renovation and unprecedented growth process. Our registered brand name and original product "Perlas del Mar de Cortez®" -the authentic Gulf of California Cultured Pearl- continues to gain Worldwide prestige.
In
all, the Company has over 12 years experience of actually growing pearl oysters,
cultured pearls and producing pearl jewelry. No one else can lay similar claims,
at least in Mexico and Latin America.
Our main office & store are all located inside the Guaymas Campus of the ITESM, within the main building known as CECARENA. The Pearl Farm is located just in front of ITESM, in the clean and tranquil waters of Bacochibampo Bay.
