About
Leather goods manufacturing in São João da Madeira
Why Not? Bags started with its own brand and grew into a manufacturing partner for international fashion brands. Today 94% of our production is exported.
Portuguese manufacturing
Made in Portugal
Our workshop is in São João da Madeira, a city in northern Portugal with a long history in footwear and leather goods. This is where we develop and sample, and where production is planned and checked.
Craftsmanship
Hand skills, modern equipment
Cutting, edge painting, stitching and assembly are done by experienced artisans working with industrial machinery. Each step is checked before the product moves on.
Product development
From your brief to an approved sample
We work from a design, a reference piece or a full technical pack. Our team makes the patterns, develops the construction, sources materials and hardware, and builds prototypes until the sample is approved.
Two ways to work with us
Private label or our own designs
Brands can bring their own design for development and production, or start from our ready-to-develop collection and customise materials, colours, hardware and branding.
International clients
Working with brands across Europe and beyond
Fashion houses, designer labels and growing brands trust us with development and production.
