On November 18, 1783, Queen D. Maria I awarded the Holy House of Mercy of Lisbon a Lottery. In March 1840, Pedro José Pereira Campião, a merchant in Lisbon, founded the Campião exchange office, which sold the National Lottery tickets. Mr. Campião left the business to his employee and, in partnership with his brother, Vicente Carlos Dias, created the firm Campião & Cia., Sucs. José Dias & Dias, Lda., Which continues today in the hands of the same family. It is today the oldest lottery house in the world, with over 150 years of existence, becoming worthy of mention in the Guinness Book of World Records. Campião is dedicated to the sale of Totoloto, Totobola, Euromillions and Lottery, with 16 branches in Portugal.
