\n\t\t1904<\/span>\n

How it all began<\/h2>\n

Our story dates back to 1904, the year Minerva printing house was founded. At the beginning of the century, printing methods were manual, relying on the skill and artistry of craftsmen.<\/p>\n\t

Historic publications were produced, such as \u201cO Com\u00e9rcio de Villa do Conde\u201d and \u201cIllustra\u00e7\u00e3o Villacondense\u201d, founded and directed by the father of Jos\u00e9 R\u00e9gio \u2014 today a rare work of great bibliographic value, which together with \u201cVilla do Conde e Seu Alfoz\u201d forms the largest written repository of Vila do Conde\u2019s history \u2014 not forgetting the censored newspaper \u201cA Rep\u00fablica.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n\t1969<\/span> \n

In 1969, ownership was transferred to Alberto Santos, father of the current owners, who can be seen in the centre of the photo. At that time, he was a master typographer at the \u201cCasa de Corre\u00e7\u00e3o\u201d \u2014 now the Monastery of Santa Clara \u2014 where, for many years, the best local graphic artists worked, including the renowned Carlos Ouvidor da Costa.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\n

\n
\n\t1970<\/span> \n

Relocation to Rua de Santo Amaro, responding to the need to expand the printing house.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\n

\n
\n

<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\t

\n
\n\t1975<\/span> \n

Relocation to Rua da Lapa, now in a dedicated building with facilities that allowed the company to keep up with the technological evolution of the time.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\t\n\t\t

\n
\n\t1981<\/span> \n

Acquisition of the first offset printing machine, a major breakthrough in the printing sector. This enabled us to print in colour with speed and quality that positioned us at a high level.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t\n

\n
\n\t1986<\/span> \n

Installation of the first computerized typesetting system, representing a significant leap in pagination capacity, exponentially increasing productive and creative capabilities.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t\n
