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.
Fractio helps Portuguese companies build the Nordic relationships, references and local presence they need to win in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland.
