Co-founded a small souvenir business in Portugal, building the concept from the ground up. Developed a unique product, managed the design process, and sourced all materials, packaging, and production partners locally. The focus lied on creating something authentic, high-quality, and locally rooted.

On the commercial side, I was responsible for building a network of 20+ premium retail partners - including key accounts like Portugal Duty Free at all continental airports as well as Terminales del Atlántico Medio for Lisbon Cruise Port. 

Outreach was entirely cold - in person, over the phone, via LinkedIn, and email. This involved identifying the right partners, tailoring the pitch, closing deals and establishing long-term relationships. I also participated in local markets to engage directly with end-customers and validate the product in real time.

Over time, we worked on streamlining operations and automating key processes to ensure the business could run efficiently and scale sustain
