Portobello America celebrates one year of growth and achievement

Baxter, TN – Portobello America, the U.S. business unit of Portobello Grupo, celebrates the one-year anniversary of the successful launch of its 986,000-square-foot, cutting-edge manufacturing facility in Baxter, Tennessee. In this short time, the company has achieved significant milestones, demonstrating its commitment to design, innovation, sustainability, and exceptional customer service.

The company has also expanded its global presence by showcasing its products at Cersaie as part of Portobello Grupo, unveiling its latest innovative designs, and connecting with industry professionals. This further solidifies its reputation as a trailblazer in tile design.

“Our commitment to design excellence has been recognized internationally. It was an honor to receive the TECNA 2024 award in Italy for ‘Best New Tile Factory in North America.’ This accolade reflects our leadership in innovative tile manufacturing and highlights our continuous pursuit of excellence,” says João Oliveira, CEO of Portobello America.

Our factory is poised to exceed 27 million square feet of production this year, demonstrating our commitment to expanding our capacity and meeting the increasing demand for our high-quality ceramic tile products. Our team has experienced remarkable sales growth, reporting record-breaking volume that positions us for continued success in the future.”

“Innovation and design drive Portobello America’s product launches,” added Mike Ward, VP of Sales. “By investing time and resources into working with designers and leveraging our annual Innovation Design Report, we’ve been able to develop a diverse product portfolio that caters specifically to the North American market. Our focus on smaller format tiles and mosaic offerings is a testament to our commitment to staying ahead of trends and meeting the evolving needs of our customers.”

To celebrate these achievements, Portobello America will host a special event on October 25th to honor its associates and their families. This gathering will recognize the hard work and teamwork that have contributed to the company’s success.
