Marita Moreno

Marita Moreno is a sustainable Portuguese brand of fashion accessories created with a unique and ethical perspective, in which the history of the products is fundamental for its definition as a "slow fashion" brand. Our products use local and national endogenous resources, artisanal and industrial. We are constantly in search of how to create and produce design objects with history that are used in everyday life.

Ethics, transparency in production and social responsibility have always been intrinsic values to the brand. From the beginning, with the creation of limited lines, the use of national raw materials, production in Portugal and the integration of traditional handcrafted textiles in our products, we began to look at our environmental responsibility as a company and the importance of producing in a sustainable way. Since the introduction of the vegan line, we have started to go further and make a careful choice of the sustainable materials we use in our products, furthering our intention to change mentalities through a more conscious consumption with the environment and our role in the world we live in. ​We care about the creative process and our models are made to last. We use quality materials based on the principles of sustainability when producing our products for greater durability of the items and we add a timeless design that avoids fashion trends which would imply shorter life cycles to the products. We work with a craftsman who made our handmade bags, with certified artisans who made handmade weaving especially for our brand, and with a small family factory. We have a close relationship with the suppliers who provide the raw material we use to make our products. Marita Moreno operates according to the collective bargaining agreement - fulfilling all the payments to the state, including social security, finances and taxes - and the ACT (Authority for Working Conditions). We only work with companies that follow and respect the rules imposed by the Portuguese State, with regard to job security, social security and finances. Our commitment as a company is to use sustainable and ecological practices in the corporate culture within Marita Moreno, thus minimizing the impacts generated in the environment from economic activities as well as alert people to the way they consume, change habits and mentalities.
