Our story
How we got our start?
When Chris and Will Haughey started Tegu, they asked: “Could we create a for-profit company that would foster a positive social impact in Honduras through its business?” That was where it all began, and today, we’ve established our fully independent toy factory outside Tegucigalpa.
What makes our product unique?
We like to say it’s a new twist on an old classic. We’ve carefully hidden magnets inside traditional wooden building blocks all while creating a visually beautiful toy—one that would fit well in your playroom, coffee table, or office desk.
Why we love what we do?
Honduras is the 3rd poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and has one of the highest unemployment rates. We are in Honduras to change this story; we believe the power of job creation and awakening the joy of service will one day allow us to be the ‘employer of choice’ in the country and region.
