Portuguese presence in the Nordics

Science4you

Educational Toys

Science4you is a Portuguese educational-toy company founded in 2008 by Miguel Pina Martins, designing and producing STEM kits that turn science experiments into play. From bases in Lisbon and Porto — with subsidiaries in Madrid and London — it exports a range of 500-plus toys to more than 60 countries, reaching Nordic families through Amazon’s marketplaces and European toy-retail distribution.

Corridor footprint

Science4you reaches Nordic consumers primarily through e-commerce — its STEM kits are listed on Amazon’s European marketplaces, including the Swedish storefront — and through pan-European specialty toy distribution that feeds Nordic retailers. The company built its model on owning the full chain from concept and pedagogy to manufacturing, allowing it to localise packaging and instructions for international markets.

From its Lisbon and Porto bases, with subsidiaries in Madrid and London, Science4you exports to more than 60 countries and carries a catalogue of over 500 science and educational toys. The Nordic region — with its strong cultural emphasis on STEM education and high e-commerce penetration — is a natural fit for the brand’s experiment-led kits.

Why this matters for the corridor

Science4you is a rare Portuguese consumer brand built for export from day one, and its Nordic reach shows how a small Portuguese company can use marketplaces and EU distribution to place a Made-in-Portugal product in Scandinavian homes without a local office — a template other Portuguese D2C and education brands study as they look north.
