About us

The market demands respect for the environment, the use of less aggressive techniques and materials, and constant optimization of resources.

StockNow (formerly Pura Alternativa) was founded in 2000 in the city of Barcelos, in northern Portugal.
In addition to producing for other brands, it owns Skulk, a brand specializing in streetwear.

The company is led by Orlando Marco Maciel, owner and manager. With over 20 years of experience working in the textile sector, he maintains an assertive and up-to-date vision of the industry, always with an eye on the future.

Technological innovation is constant, in a quest to increase production capacity as well as the variety of techniques and processes available.
The relationship with customers is long-lasting and based on constant support and assistance with their needs, from the first draft of the piece to its delivery.

The company's main objective is to maintain growth, but always with respect for the environment and community in which it operates, proving that environmental sustainability and social responsibility are not incompatible with economic viability.
