Corridor footprint

Racius lists Tintojal – Tinturaria e Acabamentos, Lda. (NIF 503933376) at Rua da Cerquinha, n.º 242, 4805-398 Guimarães. It is a sociedade por quotas with share capital of €720,000. Its main activity is bleaching and dyeing (CAE 13301). Its registered activities also include dyeing and finishing of yarns, fabrics and textile articles, knitted-fabric manufacture and renewable electricity generation. Racius records an earlier company name, Tintijal – Tinturaria e Acabamentos, Lda., and filed accounts going back to 2006. The Otojal Group website presents Tintojal as one of its three companies, alongside the textile printer Otojal Estamparia Têxtil and OTS Operative Textile Solutions.

The H&M Group public supplier list (August 2026, v1.2) names Tintojal as both factory and supplier, at Cerquinha Street No. 242, Ronfe, Guimarães. H&M classes the site as a component and processing unit owned by the supplier, with less than three years of business with H&M and a workforce in the 1–500 band. Because Tintojal is listed as its own supplier, it sells to the Swedish group directly rather than only as a subcontractor to a garment maker.

Why this matters for the corridor

Most Portuguese names on H&M’s list are garment makers. Tintojal is one of the wet-processing (dyeing and finishing) plants behind them, and it is a recent addition, with under three years of business with H&M. That fits the wider pattern NorthSouth HQ found in the August 2026 list: 33 of H&M’s 63 Portuguese factories had been with the group for less than three years. For Nordic fashion brands nearshoring production to the Minho, a dye house in the Ave valley that H&M already uses is a relevant supplier to look at.
