LEGACY
During the 1940s, Joaquim dos Reis Marques started, on his own, in the tanning of sheep and goat skins. About twenty years later, in the year 1966, shortly after his return from military service, his son João Marques and his younger brothers, José and Humberto began to work with their father.
In 1977, the Marsipel company was formed by father and children, which will continue with the activity previously developed on an individual basis. From this date on, a new dynamic in the management of society was introduced, which led to the specialization of the manufacture of bovine skins for the footwear industry.
They could not imagine that they were laying the foundations for a group of companies that today occupies a prominent place in the Portuguese tanning industry.
Maintaining a centralized management in the family, and with the entry of the 3rd generation in the leadership of the company, the Marsipel Group has been maintaining a top position in the sector, focused on a strategy of sustained growth, permanent adaptation to the market, constant evaluation changes in the environment and the implementation of a strict financial policy.
