Our production is 100% proudly crafted, designed, produced and woven in Portugal, in a sustainable and eco-friendly fashion. A 200.000 square meter campus, filled with top class installations and state-of-the-art equipment, provides our teams with the best working conditions to pursue the highest quality standards in every task. SOMELOS is able respond to any challenge swiftly and quickly, ensuring our fabrics and garments consistently maintain every inch of value. We have a vast network of suppliers spread around the world. They provide us with the best textile raw materials available. Our choices are demanding, criterious, and knowledgeable. After all, we have over 60 years of experience in doing so. SOMELOS controls the entirety of the textile production process. Raw materials come in, and beautiful fabrics and garments come out, ready to make their way into the world. Spinning, weaving, dyeing, finishing, and manufacturing all happen inside our facilities. This degree of control also allows us to care for the planet. Sustainability is a major concern at SOMELOS, and we invested heavily to achieve a zero carbon footprint. Our relationship with the local community of Ronfe, Guimarães, could not be better. Our facilities ensure all our staff the best working conditions. Our campus includes a cafeteria, kindergarten, well being, full health, medical, and nursing services. It is our way of giving back to our employees all they give us every day. SOMELOS is an organization born out of a passion for the textile sector. From sketch to final product, every step is a labor of love. We are thorough and demanding in every task. This is the way we ensure that every single fabric and garment we produce truly shines.
