Alondra is a small family business that manufactures furniture, textiles and decoration for children's rooms.
Although it was created more than 50 years ago as a children's clothing workshop, it was in 1985 when Alondra Infantil SL was formed as a company specializing in versatile and functional children's rooms.

After the health crisis, many businesses have been affected because their level of sales has dropped and this has caused the closure of some companies. In the case of Alondra, this has not happened thanks to the differentiation strategy they have carried out and the set of actions they have carried out to get through 2020.
