Tell your company's story
We are ALEC Group, a fully vertically integrated textile group operating from Barcelos and Braga, Portugal, since 1981. With 350+ professionals across seven specialised units, ALEC Garments, GBTX, Gabritex, JWay (seamless), and ALEC Fabrics, we cover the complete production chain from yarn and fabric through to finished garment, across every category in the NovaSupplier catalog.
ALEC Fabrics knits our own jersey, fleece, piquet, interlock, rib, mesh, double face, jacquard, and woven fabrics in-house. Our garment units specialise across fashion wovens and knitwear (ALEC Garments), premium jersey (GBTX), streetwear and sportswear (Gabritex), and seamless knit (JWay). Fibre options span cotton, linen, hemp, wool, bamboo, silk, all major synthetics, and recycled blends.
Our certification stack is elite: GOTS, GRS, OCS, OEKO-TEX CIT, Better Cotton, amfori BSCI, Higg IDX, and Axpo renewable energy. Our "Beyond Textiles" programme, with Beyond Circular, Beyond Social, and Beyond Creativity pillars, embeds sustainability and community responsibility into the group's identity, not just its compliance documents.
