TENGIVA was created in 2018 by author and textile sourcing expert, Annie Cyr, and textile and paper engineer Dr. Carlos Agudelo. Fervent believers in innovation, this duo of researchers combines their practical, insightful textile sourcing experience, with in-depth understanding of textile chemistry, and its infinite possibilities.

Industrial fashion management major Annie Cyr, a reputed textile sourcing expert, author of the Textile Fibers Guide and founder of the textile publishing and education firm CACITH Inc., is a passionate advocate for textile technology advancement, innovation and quality control.

With a PhD in industrial engineering, specialized in textile and paper, Dr. Agudelo is a highly published, multilingual international speaker, with a deep understanding of textile science, quality control, manufacturing processes, synthesis and development of polymers for medical and technical applications, textile and paper industry process and innovation management.

Assisted by a team of textile experts and web wizards, they've conceived a platform that's specifically designed to serve the singular needs of the industry. Their goal: on the one hand, to inform and educate buyers so textile sourcing becomes smarter. On the other, to help manufactures empty their warehouses, while developing new  business opportunities.
