About us

The bridge between Chinese manufacturing and Peruvian producers

Marea AI S.A.C. is a Peruvian company with offices in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. We connect companies in Peru and Latin America directly with Chinese machinery manufacturers: we select the right factory, inspect quality before shipment and support installation and after-⁠sales in Spanish.

Our story

Why “Marea”?

In Spanish, marea means tide — the steady force that moves across the Pacific and reshapes the coast a little every day. For us it also stands for trade across that ocean: equipment built in China, put to work in Peru.

Marea AI was founded in Lima to make buying equipment from China simpler and safer for producers in Peru. Chinese manufacturers offer a wide range of processing and packaging equipment, but distance, language, technical specifications and after-⁠sales support often get in the way.

We work in between: we talk to manufacturers in Chinese and to your plant team in Spanish, specify the equipment for your product, follow it through manufacturing and shipping, and stay with you after commissioning. Our solutions are fruit deep processing — a natural fit for one of the world’s leading fruit exporters — and waste treatment and resource recovery.

And the “AI” in our name? We add automation, data and AI to the lines we supply, from optical sorting to a Spanish-⁠language assistant for equipment manuals.

Offices

In Peru, and close to the factories in China

Our main office in Lima looks after you locally; our three branches in China work directly with the manufacturers.

13 hours apart

When the working day ends in Lima, it is just beginning in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Questions you send us in the afternoon reach the factory that same night, Peru time: our teams work in relay, so your project keeps moving around the clock.

Purpose

Our mission and vision

Mission

Help companies in Peru and Latin America invest in processing and packaging equipment with confidence: the right specification, clear terms and support that stays after the line is running.

Vision

A region where producers of every size add value to what they grow and make — with dependable equipment, local support and the know-⁠how to run it well.

Our values

What we value

Four principles behind every specification, every quotation and every commissioning.

Clear terms

Price basis, payment, delivery time and warranty in writing from the first quotation. You know what you are buying before you commit.

The right fit

We specify for your product, capacity and plant — not for the biggest machine in the catalog. If something is not the right fit, we will tell you.

Responsibility after the sale

Installation, training, spare parts and warranty are part of the job, not an afterthought.

Precise across languages

We work in Spanish, English and Chinese, so manufacturers and your team understand each other exactly.
