About Us
We are a Multi-site Textile Production Company, founded in Portugal in 1991.
Specialising in garment manufacturing, our operations and expertise extend across both Europe and Asia, where we produce a wide range of garments, including fashion wear and professional workwear.
Over the years, we have evolved into a dynamic team with a profound understanding of and connections in both visual and functional trends. In a rapidly changing and competitive industry, our mission is to advocate for our customers' interests as if they were our own. We actively engage in every stage of production, delivering solutions that generate genuine value.
-
For over 30 years, we have proudly represented the fashion industry in Portugal, building lasting and successful relationships with certified garment manufacturers (ISO 9001, GOTS, and Oeko-Tex). Most of these factories can run on fully green-energy-powered production lines, reflecting strong commitment to sustainability.
Our services focus heavily on quality control and assurance, while also helping to bridge communication gaps between clients and manufacturers—ensuring smooth, efficient collaboration.
To further deepen our expertise in sustainable practices, we formed a strategic partnership with an experienced sales team in Sweden. Since 2016, we have focused on R&D in performance fabrics, supporting the development of collections that are both technically advanced and environmentally conscious.
-
In response to growing opportunities and increased demand for different product ranges and greater production capacity, we expanded our operations to Asia around 2004. Since then, we have established 2 partnerships in China and later extended to Cambodia.
These collaborations have allowed us to take a shareholder role and enhance factory efficiency through investments in skilled personnel, improved workspaces, and advanced weaving machines for technical fabrics.
This expansion has also provided us with greater control over maintaining quality standards and securing the necessary production certifications.
We also have a buying office in Hong Kong. This location allows us to efficiently manage our operations across Asia while meeting the needs of our clients and customers.
