Américo Amorim, Chairman & CEO of Amorim Investimentos e Participações, S.G.P.S., S.A.

Over the course of more than a century, and down thorough various generations, the Amorim Family has built up and consolidated a business group that stands out because of its daring and its ability to adopt a proactive approach to the future.

Founded on the activity of transforming cork, in the far-off year of 1870, the Amorim Group has developed products and opened up markets, becoming the unchallenged leader of this sector. Today, we lead on quality, the diversity of our offer and our investment in research and innovation. In any part of the world where cork products are in use, the name Amorim is a byword for natural, high quality products, and exemplary performance.

Along with cork, still our core business today, we have intervened in various operations and activities that have made a substantial contribution to the development of the Group and the Portuguese economy, as for example with mobile phones, oil, and private banking.

The successes of the past and present are explained by our values, the foundation from which we face the future with enthusiasm and reaffirm our willingness to keep the Group as an integrated centre to develop a range of entrepreneurial activities.
