Establishment of ACB (Angel Chamorro Blasco) as a one person import - export business in a 3m22 office.
Who are we?
Since 1989, Tierra Zen has been distributing products from spiritual traditions around the world in Europe and beyond. From Zen meditation to Tibetan Buddhism, or the sage and palo santo of Native Americans, we distribute quality and meaningful products that reflect the diversity of the spiritual quest. We share beauty, culture, and spirituality.
In addition, we feel comfortable connecting with people from all over the world. We are internationalists, humanists, and believe in understanding people and cultures. The path of each human being is unique, and we all aspire to the same thing: to achieve happiness and inner peace.
We hope that you are as moved as we are when burning our incense, listening to our chimes, or seeing the rainbows of our crystals. We are grateful to share this wealth with you.
Since 2022, Tierra Zen has been part of the Japanese group Nippon Kodo, our historical partner, who has been making extraordinary incense since 1575.
Our Values
We are a people-oriented company and we like to maintain a close personal relationship with all our collaborators. We seek, as far as possible, stable and long-lasting relationships with our customers, suppliers and the people who work at Tierra Zen.
Furthermore, as we want to contribute to the well-being of the society in which we live, we have worked with social integration workshops (Grainart, Taller Tocs) since the beginning of the company.
We are committed to creating a more sustainable world: our offices have been built in an old renovated farmhouse from which we can see the mountains and clouds; we are surrounded by orange trees that we care for using organic farming methods; we compost, we save water... because we know that every little action is important.
