We are a specialist shop in a "niche" market, begun in 1991 on discovery of a gap in the market for high quality cotton products, that were available abroad in better quality linen shops but not here in the country of origin. Initially working on the local "gypsy" markets selling only bedspreads, we developed a core of repeat clients,established a reputation of selling only the best, and learnt from the bottom up exactly what people were looking for.
1997 saw the birth of Factory Outlet Bedspreads in Alvor (a picturesque fishing village close to Portimão in the Algarve); establishment of the shop in an ex-restaurant in a side street close to the municipal market, the simple way of life in this fishing village exemplified everything we felt about life in Portugal. Being in Alvor meant that clients could enjoy the shopping experience at their leisure.
As time has gone by we have heavily invested in stock, still only buying from the best Portuguese manufacturers, our extensive stock ranges now includes: sheets fitted and flat in Portuguese and UK sizes, cotton and poly/cotton mixed, blankets, duvets, pillows, duvet covers, towels, valances, curtains,bathmats, cushion covers, protectors, tea-towels, placemats, etc, to name but a few products, not forgetting our trademark bedspreads.
We now sell everything anybody could need if setting up home/investing in a rental unit/refurbishing or kitting out a holiday home. We constantly re-stock with repeat and new designs year after year, always the best quality, with the emphasis on the customers needs.
Our trademark bedspreads have built our reputation; woven from 400 grms / sq.metre Egyptian matelasse cotton, created into; bedspreads, valances, curtains, cushion covers, tablecloths, pillow shams, place mats, hard wearing, machine washable and colour fast, easycare dispelling the myth of cotton being hard to iron, buy the best and it is not, looking like new even after years of use.
Local demand 6 years ago resulted in a new range of duvet covers, now available in most colours, made out of 250 grms Egyptian cotton, lighter weave perfect for duvet covers, with matching curtains, cushion covers and shams.
