* EMACOR ACE
Founded on February 10, 1987, with the main aim of bringing together some of the best companies of construction materials at the national level, it has evolved into the ACE format on April 14, 2005.Over time, Emacor has been able to consolidate its position in the market, distinguishing itself as a consortium with high national representativeness, bringing together about 10% of the total turnover of the sector, combined with each member occupying a leadership position at regional level.On the other hand, Emacor distinguishes itself by the high longevity and notoriety that the group reached, which are the results of a clear statement of values and ethics, trust and friendship between the grouped, but also good image and credibility granted in the industry and, particularly, with suppliers.Going beyond the concept of central purchasing, market developments, as well as synergy with new partners, has made the development of an own brand a necessity.The introduction of the tag Emacor is made on January 8, 2007.The demand for new products and solutions is beyond the boundaries of the national market and the company began a process of imports. The group increasingly extends its area of operation and, in 2008, buys a ceramic industry which follows on the brand Cliper Ceramics, SA.The year 2010 marks another turn. Looking for new strategic goals and future business opportunities, the group enlisted the consulting services of the Portuguese Society of Innovation. The strategic plan that has resulted is currently being implemented.Today, Emacor retains its vitality and dynamic business, based on the sum of their forces combined.
