PORTUGAL – MARKETS – José Luis Oliveira da Silva, CEO Casa Santos Lima was founded by Joaquim Santos Lima in the late 19 th century, and for many years it exported barrels of wine produced at Quinta da Boavista to countries like Brazil and the United Kingdom. Since then, five different generations have managed the family business. In the 1990s, the task fell to José Luis Oliveira da Silva, who left his career in finance to fully focus on his family’s business. After taking over the company, he launched himself into restructuring the old winery, modernising the equipment, and building new infrastructures and wine cellars. The same decade also saw several milestones in the company’s development. For example, the most prestigious Portuguese varieties, as well as international varieties (1990-1995) were introduced; the first vintages under the Quinta da Espiga, Quinta das Setencostas and Palha-Canas brands (1996) were bottled and the first 86,000 bottles were shipped to the United Kingdom.
