Chic Souvenirs for Discerning Travelers at AJA Company
No vacation in Cartagena would be complete without bringing home a few souvenirs to remember this glorious city by. But much of the touristy locations you’ll come across sell the same low-quality products by the bagful. While this is a great way to stock up on trinkets for far-flung family and friends, when you want something special for yourself or someone dear to you, quality is absolutely essential. If you’re looking for an upscale shopping experience featuring classy clothing, handmade crafts, artisan furniture, and unique mementos of your time in Cartagena, there’s no better place than AJA Company.
Founded by the incredibly elegant Pia Páez, AJA Company is a treasure trove of high-quality, locally made goods. Her deep appreciation for Colombian artisans and her passion for design are woven into every item found in her stores. What started as a single boutique has grown into a multi-location brand, each shop carefully curated to showcase the best of Colombia’s fashion, décor, and crafts.
But AJA Company is more than just artisan goods—it’s also a **coffee lover’s paradise**, thanks to Pia’s son, Arthur Alm. His passion for Colombian coffee led to the creation of **Kingdom Coffee**, a brand that celebrates the diverse coffee-growing regions of Colombia. Each cup tells a story of the land it comes from, offering flavors that range from nutty and chocolatey to floral and fruity. You can find Kingdom Coffee at all AJA Company locations, making it easy to take a taste of Colombia home with you. Learn more about Kingdom Coffee here.

The sleek and chic design of AJA Company’s boutiques creates a **relaxing and immersive shopping experience**. Whether you’re browsing for fashion, home décor, or a bag of freshly roasted Kingdom Coffee, you’ll find yourself enchanted by the thoughtful details and quality craftsmanship.
