Meet the founders of AVISPA: Robin and his wife. Bound by their love for cycling, health, and adventure, they drew upon their Latin American roots to create a brand that embodies resilience and hard work – 'Avispa'. Through AVISPA, they infuse their merchandise with unique styles inspired by bees and their culture, embodying diligence and determination in every design.
Their journey, shaped by experiences in third-world countries, ignited a passion for community empowerment. Understanding the pivotal role of business in social responsibility, they carefully select organizations that share their vision. Through AVISPA, they strive to inspire, support, and advocate for a brighter future, one ride at a time.
