Mendon\u00e7a Costa & Sons, the company<\/em><\/p>\n

Mendon\u00e7a Costa & Sons is a family business established in 2007, originated by the restructuring of Carlos Alberto Lopes company (existing since 1990). The renewed compromise between father and sons lead to the strengthening of values and business mission previously developed by its founder, Carlos Alberto Lopes Costa, with a new contemporary commitment in what concerns innovation and quality of service, in light of the emerging trends.<\/p>\n

The new company, Medon\u00e7a Costa & Sons, develops its activity in the area of food and restaurant industry, taking on the challenge of opening an eclectic, welcoming and cozy space, where quality is guaranteed.<\/p>\n

More recently, in 2014, the company started a new line of business with the creation and production of the famous trademark Queijadas de Inhame das Furnas\u00ae. This new age dessert appears in the azorean market thanks to the innovation applied to use local endogenous products and the inspirational playfulness of Chef <\/em>Paulo Mendon\u00e7a Costa.<\/p>\n
