Glória Girão and Márcio Nogueira, founders of Marechal Optical, revealed to ÓpticaPro that the experience in Portugal “is going very well” and the feedback has been positive, which reveals the “quality of the products”.
What are the biggest differences between the Portuguese and Brazilian markets?
Glória Girão: The biggest difference between Portuguese and Brazilian consumers is the currency, with the euro having more purchasing power in relation to the real.
How is Marechal’s experience going?
Márcio Nogueira: It’s going very well, the response is very good, people have really enjoyed it. The feedback refers to the quality of our products, frames in pure acetate, good fit, light, comfortable. On the opticians’ side it has been equally positive, as it is a way of attracting customers to the shops and with competitive prices.
