History

2Locos was founded in 2009 by Alec Ghafouri – who previously launched NetClearly, the only print magazine covering the internet at the time, who aspired about serving, curating, and filtering shopping information that could bring value to users. Ghafouri’s interest in the Latino culture allowed him to research and envision the growth and unmet demand within the Latino market. He decided to build a product that enhances the shopping and lifestyle experience of Latinos online.
