About Manulena

The history of Manulena begins 50 years ago when Manuel Pedro Custódio, a determined and ambitious man, began cycling outside the churches and the Sanctuary of Fatima to sell the cult candles he himself produced. Founded in 1968, it quickly grew the business and, from religious and lighting candles, Manulena advanced to decoration, environment and, recently, cosmetic lines. From parents to children, the company has always grown sustainably and with high standards of excellence. This made it possible to export to the best international brands from demanding luxury markets such as the United Kingdom, Spain, France, Germany and the United States, in an amount that already corresponds to more than half of their turnover. The objective is to continue to invest in technological and human investment and thus fulfill the mission of growing the company and preserving the name and history achieved over these 50 years of activity.Read their story
