Five years of building the bridge between fashion brands and the factories that produce their clothing in Portugal.
.jpeg)
Started in Porto with a small Rolodex of 12 factories and a mission to make Portuguese manufacturing accessible to fashion brands without the cold-email pain.
Hit 50 fashion brands across 8 countries. Refined our 100-unit MOQ workflow and built the internal QC checklist that still runs every order today.
Published the first version of our factory directory. 60 factories with full capability profiles, MOQ ranges, and direct contacts. The €39 price point hasn't changed since.

Added tech pack standardization after seeing too many sample rounds wasted on bad specs.

Extended documentation to factories across Porto, Guimarães, Braga, Barcelos, and Vila Nova de Famalicão.
Rolling out per-unit inspection where we visit every factory before your order ships. Currently in pilot with 20 brands across knitwear and outerwear lines.
Factories in our network carry internationally recognized certifications for quality, sustainability, and social responsibility. Your production can carry those credentials without extra work on your side.
GOTS · OEKO-TEX
We don't guess. Every range you see comes from actual purchase orders our network has issued or quoted in the last 12 months across the Porto, Braga and Guimarães textile clusters.
"We built this directory because when I tried to launch my own brand, it took 8 months to find a factory that would reply. This is what I wish I'd had then."

80 documented Portuguese factories, 25 verified with active social audits, refreshed every quarter. Not a scrape.
Each factory is documented from Portuguese company registries, ATP membership records, trade fair rosters, and public certification bodies.
A subset of the 80 factories holds current social-audit certificates on file: SMETA, BSCI, SA8000, or equivalent. Flagged in the directory as verified.
Contact data, MOQs, and certifications are re-validated four times a year. Buy once, receive every update.
Straight answers on sourcing in Portugal.
Yes, every time. Average reply is under 24 hours, usually within a few. Every email gets a personal response from someone who actually understands sourcing in Portugal. No auto-responders, no junior reps copying templates.
Send us your brief using the contact form or by email. We'll review it and reply within 24 hours with an honest answer on whether our factory group is the right fit. If it is, we'll outline exactly what we need from you and what happens next.
Everything starts by email. No calls until we've confirmed there's a real match.
Yes, by appointment. We're based in Rua de Cedofeita in central Porto. If you're in town, email us a few days ahead and we'll set aside an hour to walk through your project, look at fabric swatches, and plan factory visits if you want to see workshops in person.
Yes. Most of our clients are based outside Europe — the US, UK, Australia, and Canada are particularly active. We handle the time zone gap by replying same-day in your morning and shipping samples DDP so you don't deal with customs. Minimum order is 100 units across all regions.
