After inheriting her father-in-law’s business, Tabacaria Aviz’s current manager, Maria José Viriato, took advantage of her experience and decided to implement some changes. It started by offering other types of articles and products, besides the usual publications, and extended its opening hours. At this time, in addition to its normal opening hours during the week, it is also open from 10 pm to 4 am on weekends. This differentiating time opened the tobacconist to a new audience. In addition to a place where people will buy their newspapers and magazines and tobacco, they have started to serve another type of audience that uses the tobacco shop almost as a convenience store.
In this shop, the main vocation is to disclose the work of small creators, essentially Portuguese. Their mentors, a couple who loves to “build dreams”, have tried to pull into this space those who, like them, share the same vision. The project is inserted in a multifunctional space of interaction between that which the creators like and the taste of other people who, like them, appreciate “quality, design, simplicity, creativity”. Besides its brands, 100% Portugal and Mum Who Loves to Sew, you can find other authors who are environmentally conscious and make handmade pieces. There is a great bet on illustration, but also on ceramics, author costume jewellery, and decoration, among others.
