History

The company was founded in 1954 as Casa Monterrey by the Swiss Bruno Tschudi and the Benavides family, current owners of Compañía de Minas Buenaventura, opening its first store in the 54th block of the Jirón de la Unión.[1][2] It opened up to 16 stores in the city, in the districts of Miraflores, San Isidro, Surco and the Cercado.[1] Its original name eventually changed its spelling due to a legal battle, as it was identical to that of a store in Arequipa.[3]

It was sold to the Lau family in 1991, closing in the early months of 1993 due to the economic crisis of the time.[1]
