One of the largest Portuguese manufacturers for luxury brands, Carite exports 95% of its production

Based in Felgueiras, in the North of Portugal, Carite, with more than 25 years of experience, employs more than 250 people and exports essentially to the European market. However, the group works towards the ambition to achieve other destinations in other parts of the globe.
