Leicil — Malhas e Confecções Lda is a Barcelos knitwear manufacturer founded on 25 October 1978, producing circular-knit garments for men, women and children. It appears as a Tier-1 supplier on the published supplier list of Fenix Outdoor, the Swedish group behind Fjällräven — a named Nordic customer.
Leicil is named on the published Tier-1 supplier list of Fenix Outdoor, the Swedish outdoor group behind Fjällräven — the gold-standard form of verification for a Portuguese factory’s Nordic business, since the customer itself discloses the relationship. The Barcelos company, founded in October 1978, produces ready-to-wear circular knitwear for men, women and children across fibres from cotton and Supima to lyocell and wool.
Operating from the Lamelas industrial park in Vila Frescainha, the company runs a vertical service offer — collections, embroidery, printing, transfers, washing and garment dyeing — the flexible, full-package model that keeps the Barcelos-Famalicão knitwear belt embedded in Nordic outdoor and fashion supply chains.
Leicil sits alongside Fortiustex, J. Caetano & Filhas and Olimpio Miranda on the same Fenix Outdoor list — evidence of how deeply a single Swedish outdoor group sources from northern Portugal’s textile cluster.
