Trustworthy values combined with an high-end craftmanship and an eye for luxury design, are key elements to produce fine and unique results.
A Historyof Success
SWIPE TO NAVIGATE
Former Mármores São Gregório are founded by Luís Leite, located in Braga at Rua dos Paióis.
1982
With the help of his son Jorge Leite, current CEO, the company Mármores Centrais do Minho is created. Representing not only a name change but also a change of location and an expansion of facilities to an area of 18 000 m2.
1990
At the new facilities, the production and storage capacity for raw materials increases substantially and the company reaches 50 employees, a figure that remains stable until today.
1995
Inauguration of an 800 m2 showroom, recreating interiors and details that proves our quality and our sensibility for challenging projects and where we show natural stones from all over the world.
2000
If in the 80s and 90s we used almost all of our production capacity for the bigger construction works that marked the country's real estate boom, at the turn of the millennium we began to position ourselves strongly in the luxury market that already distinguished us.
2001
At the peak of the economic crisis that hit Portugal, we have prepared our internationalization and today we export around 75% of its production around the world.
2010
With Portugal still immersed in very restrictive economic measures, we have managed to maintain our position in the luxury market and ended the year as the second best year in terms of turnover in our entire history.
2014
We've refurbished our showroom presenting new environments as well as the line of decorative pieces and furniture that has been developed in recent years under the direction of renowned designer Toni Grilo.
2015
Aiming to increase our competitiveness in the market and our storage capacity, we've concluded another expansion phase of our installed area with the inauguration of our new warehouse with around 4 500 m2.
2021
Given our strong international presence, we announce the evolution in our identity, presenting ourselves as MCM Stone Tailors.

" The secret to the success of our partnership with MCM – which lasts for several years – is the confidence we both have in our performance as professionals. In every project I feel that there is a joint effort, in the elaboration of a plan, so that everything goes in the best way. During the whole projectual process I always feel supported, whether in the commercial or technical support. It is a company with which I can define plans that fit my needs, because I feel we follow the same demanding guidelines, so that our client could be satisfied with the work that results from this collaboration.
