Nearshore your production to Portugal — with a partner on the ground.
We've set up in Portugal, right in the middle of some seriously good factories — mould shops, footwear and textile lines, cork specialists, metal fab and assembly. If your supply chain feels too long, too far, or too fragile, we help you build it here: closer to your market, on a clean grid, run by people who actually give a damn about how things are made. You bring the product. We handle tooling, suppliers, samples and production — end to end.
Tell us what you're making →Five reasons brands are moving production to Portugal.
Quality that punches above its price
Portugal isn't the cheap option — it's the good one. This is Europe's #2 footwear producer, the shop floor behind Prada, Hermès and Louis Vuitton, the world's #1 cork supplier, and Marinha Grande has been cutting world-class injection moulds for decades. Translation: tight tolerances, proper finishing, and suppliers who take pride in the part.
A supplier base that's levelling up
These factories aren't standing still. There's roughly €22bn of EU recovery money (the PRR) pushing automation and Industry 4.0 across the country. So you're not buying today's capacity — you're plugging into a base that's investing in kit and capability for the next decade.
De-risk your supply chain
One factory, one ocean away, is a single point of failure. Nearshoring jumped from 42% to 56% of companies in a year for exactly this reason. Run Portugal as your primary, or as a parallel line that keeps shipping when your main source hits a wall — tariffs, freight chaos, a shut border. Redundancy you can sleep on.
Cleaner by default
Making local means less freight, full stop. And Portugal's grid ran ~75% renewable in 2025 — hydro, wind, and a fast-growing solar base. Lower carbon per unit, a legit "Made in EU" story, and numbers you can actually put in front of your customers.
Close enough to move fast
Same-ish time zone, short-haul flights, EU market with no internal duties. That means faster sampling loops, smaller MOQs, and factory visits that don't eat a week. When something's off, we're on the floor sorting it — not on a 3am call.
And someone who's done it before.
A decade taking hardware from prototype to production — tooling, DFM, CMF, supplier management, the lot. You get the reach of an agency with the attention of one person who's accountable end to end.
From "we're thinking about it" to parts in hand.
