What teyco does

Teyco S.A. de C.V. Fábrica de Telas y Camisetas is a vertically integrated textile and garment manufacturer headquartered in El Salvador, founded in 1980 as a spinoff of Industrias JM. The company operates a single manufacturing facility that produces both raw fabrics (polycotton, jersey, piqué, waffle, brushed, and specialty weaves) and finished garments (t-shirts, polo shirts, blouses, undershirts, and round-neck shirts) for men, women, and children. Its product catalog comprises approximately 15 finished garment SKUs and 12 fabric varieties, marketed under three registered sub-brands: Diego Cassel (handkerchiefs and underwear), Daniel Axel (men's shirts and t-shirts), and the main Teyco children's line. The company employs 98 people and has operated continuously for over 40 years.

Teyco's go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, combining three physical retail showroom locations in Santa Tecla and San Salvador with a WooCommerce e-commerce storefront at teyco.com.sv. Finished garments are sold at unit prices ranging from $2.59 to $8.88, with volume pricing available for bulk orders. Customer segments are horizontal: individual Salvadoran consumers (men, women, children) for finished apparel, and a secondary B2B segment of textile manufacturers purchasing raw fabric as production input. The company has no documented third-party marketplace presence, no API, and no digital integrations.

Teyco is privately held, with no external funding rounds, venture capital, or institutional investors disclosed. Its stated competitive positioning rests on vertical integration (in-house fabric production through garment assembly), proprietary textile technology, and decades of manufacturing experience. Operations are entirely domestic — El Salvador only — despite an aspirational vision of national and international leadership. The company has no disclosed AI, software platform, or technology product beyond its e-commerce site, making it a traditional manufacturing retailer rather than a technology-enabled business.
