Young man from Ovar connects clothing giants with Portuguese factories
Summary
NovaSupplier is a digital sourcing platform that connects international apparel brands directly with Portuguese factories. The founder built the startup to remove agents and intermediaries from the sourcing process and to make quoting, communication, and payments easier. The platform now lists around 30 factories and more than 120 registered brands, with active demand coming from emerging labels in several markets. A US-based investor in Portugal has taken a minority stake in the company through a five-digit investment. The startup plans to strengthen its product, expand in apparel, and eventually move into footwear.
