Coherence in speech and actions is what is expected of
brands, companies and people who inspire us. Living in a
more sustainable way requires commitment and effort from
everyone, and it goes beyond: more than not causing damage,
it generates positive and restorative impacts on society. Caring
for the community is one of Portobello's most intrinsic and
cherished values. Giving opportunities to the "Tijucas boys and
girls" represented an important stimulus for the creation of the
company in 1979, when young people from the municipality
of Santa Catarina used to leave the town searching for jobs in
other cities around the country. Since this is an area with a lot of
red earth, an important raw material for Portobello's sector, the
founders decided to create a ceramics factory there, which today
has become the main player in the segment in Brazil, directly
employing 3,700 people and indirectly impacts 40,000 residents
in the surrounding regions.
