Picking up where Case A ends, Case B reveals that Grupo Inca decided to innovate internally and develop a new fabric from the rare black alpaca fiber. After nearly three years of effort, the Inoue brothers’ dream of creating a luxury collection from undyed black alpaca fiber became a reality. The collaboration between the Inoue brothers, Incalpaca TPX and Pacomarca research center led to the launch of the first Natural Black Alpaca Collection in Tokyo in 2015. Despite the success, the supply of black alpaca fiber remained limited, which prompted Grupo Inca to broaden its black alpaca program and launch a selective breeding initiative to increase the population of these animals. The number of black alpacas steadily grew, and in 2019, KUNA, Incalpaca TPX’s luxury clothing brand launched its own new black alpaca collection. The question for Grupo Inca now was whether it could develop a commercially viable yet sustainable long-term strategy that preserved Peru’s rich alpaca heritage and continued to innovate. Sho
