Sounds like a very interesting trip. I’ve curious about the salineras for some time but have never managed to make it there.

I recently found a website that sells the salt abroad, http://www.salttraders.com/Detail.bok?no=2 . We can be sure that their mark-up and the middlemen’s is pretty big, with the producers in Maras getting a pittance of the ultimate sale price, but at least it provides a wider market for their product.

Where can Maras salt be found in Lima?
