Social purpose |
Inicially based upon Services Rendering in general ( Representation,
Insurance and Shipping Agency ), this social purpose had been rapidly
exceeded and extended, although still maintaining this important initial
aim.
Gradually, Vasconcelos Lopes Company, Lda. had been entering in other
kind of business of greater dimension, such as Trade Importation.

|
Historical summary |
With the advent of Independence, some of the greatest Commercial
Operators of that time had retracted under Importation Trade, and it was
precisely in this field that Vasconcelos Lopes Company had concentrated
and developped its action. Taking advantage of this gap, Vasconcelos
Lopes, Lda. had accelerated its intervention in the importation business,
starting to import great quantities of alimentary goods that the
population had need.
The familiar efforts had been reinforced and due to the good results
achieved, the Company had run into other fields of business, such as
importation of materials for civil construction and also domestic
electrical appliances, ending to reach fastly the leadership of the local
market.
In partnership with other Importer, the Company had entered in the
Cement business, reaching, together, a volume of thousand of tones
imported. Afterwards, it had abandoned the partnership and had worked
directly with its own Suppliers, starting to import, directly from
Indonesia, Romenia and Egypt, full shipments loaded with 8.000, 12.000 and
even 14.800 tones of cement each time.
The Company still maintains these Cement operations in full dynamics and
functionality, and has received, till now, 48 ships fully loaded with
cement, oscilating between 8.000 and 14.000 tones each.
