Our Story

Kyrios Soter Scientific began as a dream in our living room on January 15, 2007. With a newborn baby, two young daughters, and a shared vision for a better future, my husband Franco and I started our business with passion, perseverance, and faith. Franco, an Industrial Engineer from Florida International University in Miami, and I, a Civil Industrial Engineer specialized in Computer Science, believed that we could create something meaningful—not just for us, but for the world.
In those early days, we balanced raising our children with taking customer calls, changing diapers, and handling international shipments—some of which mistakenly arrived at our home instead of the warehouse. We started with three clients, but quickly learned the value of trust. Today, one of those original clients from Honduras is still with us and even attended our company’s opening celebration.
Back in 2007, remote work and digital communication were rare—especially in the Caribbean, where websites and email were just beginning to take hold. But we saw the potential. We embraced online tools, started a blog (which we still maintain), and traveled to personally meet clients from across Latin America and the Caribbean. Our approach was simple: connect with people, build trust, and offer outstanding service.
Just two years after launching, a breakthrough sale enabled us to move from our humble home office to a dedicated warehouse and office space. Today, Kyrios Soter serves a growing international customer base, including companies in Israel, Ghana, Canada, and Australia in addition to our regular Latin America and Caribbean clients.
As our small business expanded, so did our family’s involvement. Our eldest daughter is now our full-time accountant, our second daughter holds a degree in Hospitality & Tourism, and our youngest—just a baby when we began—is preparing for university. All three children have contributed to Kyrios Soter from an early age, gaining valuable experience in small business operations, leadership, customer service, and technology.
At its heart, Kyrios Soter Scientific is a family business built on strong values: honesty, kindness, service, and respect—for our clients, our team, and the environment. We reduce, reuse, and recycle wherever possible, and we support organizations that share our commitment to making a positive impact in the community.
Today, our next generation brings fresh ideas, modern tools, and a passion for innovation that drives us forward. Through social media, new technologies, and a dedication to excellence, they’re helping us carry on the legacy we started—one that puts people first.
Kyrios Soter Scientific was created to serve others. We are here to solve problems, build lasting relationships, and continue growing—together.
