“We are thrilled to partner with such a dynamic company to introduce the Palomita brand to the US market,” said Molly Robbins, Palomita Founder and President of LicenZing LLC. We chose Wish Licensing because of their expertise in licensing as well as their strong presence in the junior market. Together we will create and deliver fresh and fun designs that will reflect the look that girls and juniors want.”

Palomita’s motto “Por fin una marca para ti” (Finally a brand for you) tells the story. Palomita was created by Molly Robbins, a Mexico City native as well an apparel industry veteran. She has secured exclusive rights to use trademarks and vintage art from an array of Latino companies and is artistically incorporating them into the Palomita brand.
