Founding
Espaço Visual is founded in Ponte de Lima, focused on agricultural consultancy and support with European funding applications.
About us
31 years developing rural Portugal
Espaço Visual was founded in 1995 with a clear mission: to help farmers, businesses and investors navigate the complexity of Portuguese agriculture, with rigour, closeness and proven results.
Our manifesto
Sustainability born of balance
We are a consultancy based in Gondomar, specialising in the farming, agri-food and rural tourism sectors, with clients across Portugal.
