During house confinement for the Covid, Álex Comín Sustres and the Sisters Núria and Anna Noguera Navarro sold t -shirts stamped by themselves at home.They allocated the benefits to the I CORONO Foundation, which investigates the virus."We started to turn the first week of confinement, while boredom and Erte ended us," says Comín Holdres.They explain that they learned to stamp watching tutorials on the Internet and used old tools that collected from the street.To make themselves known they allied with other young Barcelona, those of Covidfarra, who became famous for their parties on the balcony that encouraged the neighbors and their thousands of followers on social networks.
The house confinement ended, but not the success of the three entrepreneurs."We start selling friends, then friends of friends ...", recalls Anna Noguera Navarro.What was born as a beneficial project in April 2020 has become the Perkal BCN brand.They sell original print t -shirts and sweatshirts.They go mainly to a young audience, which they reach through the Instagram social network and its website.They also make physical sales in markets.

The company manufactures on demand, to avoid overproduction
T -shirts and sweatshirts are made of organic cotton and recycled polyester in Belgium and Bangladesh."We have ensured that they are really factories in which you work with decent and respectful conditions with the environment," adds Núria Noguera Navarro.The print is still carried out by the three entrepreneurs, but not from home, but from a company of the company.New headquarters with old customs: they explain that all the furniture has recovered it from the streets.Another differential point of Perkal BCN is that they manufacture on demand, to avoid overproduction.
In 2021, which has been their first complete exercise, they have exceeded 100.000 euros of billing.They sell above all in Spain, although also to other European countries.They want to step on the accelerator to grow more quickly, but claim that what really makes them happy is to run down the street with people dressed in their clothes.
