Miss Grand Peru is a national beauty pageant title bestowed upon a woman chosen to represent Peru at the annual international pageant, Miss Grand International.[1][2][3] The title was first mentioned in 2014 when a finalist of Miss World Peru 2014, Sophía Venero, was appointed to represent the country at the Miss Grand International 2014 in Thailand.[2] Since 2016, to date, the license of Miss Grand Peru has been belonging to the event organizer headed by Jessica Newton, Grupo D'Elite.[1][2][3] Previously, the license belonged to a medical doctor and lawyer, Hanssel Vega.[4]

History
In the first decades, the Peruvian representatives for the Miss Grand International contest were either hand-picked or determined through a sub-contest of another national pageant, Miss Perú, which was also managed by the same organizer, Grupo D'Elite.[2][9][10] Later in 2023, the event to select Miss Grand Peru titleholder was planned to be held individually for the first time; the event was scheduled to be happened in Lima, 12 national finalists were expected to participate.[1][2][3]
In 2020, the original country representative at the Miss Grand International 2020 pageant who obtained the title the Miss Perú 2019, Samantha Batallanos, was removed from the title by the national licensee; not well prepared for the international was claimed,[10] and a professional model named Maricielo Gamarra was then appointed as the replacement.[10][11] However, Samantha was later appointed to participate in the next international edition the following year.[2][10]
