Poko Pano Brazilian Bikinis is a family owned company, established in Sao Paulo Brazil in 1990 by Paola Robba. After years of making bikinis and maillots for her dolls as a hobby, Paola realized her dream of starting her own swimsuit line for friends to wear and enjoy. Through producing bikinis in her garage in Sao Paulo and selling them in a friend's clothing store, Poko Pano was born.

Poko Pano's debut in the fashion world came in 2002 when the company was invited to Sao Paulo Fashion Week, one of the most renowned fashion shows in the world. Seeing Paola's designs for the first time on a runway, fashion editors and swimwear specialists fell in love with Poko Pano's unique, individual style and featured the bikinis in newspapers and fashion magazines around the globe. Since then, Poko Pano has continued to grace the Sao Paulo runways each year with their latest collections and revolutionary designs.
