Rosario Hevia is the founder of ECOCITEX, a textile circular economy model based in Chile. Hevia studied industrial engineering while actively volunteering. After a finance career, her children's birth inspired a shift: in 2018, she founded TRAVIESO, a children's clothing exchange store with a charitable twist. In 2020, Hevia launched ECOCITEX. The company recycles five tons of clothing monthly, transforming it into high-quality threads while offering marginalized women jobs. Her initiatives combat textile waste, igniting global awareness.
