About us
Established in 1981, MEFRI is a family owned company located in the north of Portugal, in Guimarães.
Although initially producing exclusively adult shirts, we later moved forward to manufacturing childrenswear and other adult items and accessories.
We are proudly local, with most of our workers living in a 10km radius. Some have been working with us for nearly two decades.
Mefri boasts a global client base and various industry awards. It has set the standard for clothing manufacturers as its clients become some of the most renowned and forward-thinking names in the industry.
Our Work
Sustainability & Certifications
Sustainability means care and respect both for our planet and for those living in it: making better products, sourcing better materials, using better production methods, choosing less wasteful products and packaging, and ensuring everyone on our supply chain is treated with respect and dignity.
In 2021, we have installed solar panels in our offices and production unit and they are now providing for almost one third of our energy needs. On one month alone our CO2 savings, around 900kg, are the equivalent to a 3500km car ride.
All our buildings are using energy efficient LED lights and our taps are equipped to save water.
Paper, plastic and textile waste, from our offices and production unit, are all prepared for recycling.
GOTS is recognized as the world's leading processing standard for textiles made from organic fibers, setting requirements for environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing.
MEFRI has been a GOTS certified company since 2022.
