“WITH INTERNET WE ARE CONNECTED TO THE WORLD”

With almost 50 years old, the company Fernando Pinto Sousa, located in Santa Maria da Feira, is dedicated to the trade and installation of plates and sandwich panels for roofs and facades. The company has always been in touch with trends and when the digital age came up, it wasted no time. Recently, the Director-General Paula Fontes participated in the Digital Commerce roadshow that is touring the country. "It was helpful to remember us that we always have to be constantly updated, because we live in a digital world and if we are not on we stay off at the business level."

The company was founded in 1970 and started manufacturing shoe buckles, but always had a vision of the future. "Over these 50 years, the company has modernized itself, both physically and technologically. A website has been created, where we have been presenting our products and the services we offer our customers. We also have a Facebook page that is updated with publications of new products, services, promotions and other topics that we find of interest to our customer."

For over 30 years at the company, Paula Fontes believes that digital business represents a world of opportunity. "The business has improved a lot, because with the Internet we are connected to the world and, nowadays, through research we can see which products are commercialized. We have a lot of demand, both for our site and our Facebook page," she explains.
