ATP welcomes CAYET, strengthening Portugal's fashion value chain

CAYET, founded by Cláudia Diniz—who was born in Famalicão, the birthplace of ATP and a historic textile hub—keeps all its production in Portugal despite Diniz currently residing in Riyadh. The brand was created out of personal inspiration, taking its name from Maria Cayetana, the founder’s daughter, and represents a new generation of Portuguese fashion driven by emotion, purpose, and the renowned savoir-faire for which the country is recognised.

“It is with great pride that CAYET joins ATP, an association that was born in my hometown, Famalicão, and plays a decisive role in affirming the Portuguese textile industry. We believe this partnership reinforces the importance of creating synergies between brands and industry, fostering the growth and internationalisation of Made in Portugal—a seal of excellence we aim to continue promoting globally,” Cláudia Diniz said in a press release.

This partnership is more than a formal membership; it symbolises a deeper connection between Portuguese industry and creative vision. CAYET becomes the first fashion brand without industrial origins to join ATP, strengthening the association’s expanding role in supporting the full national fashion value chain.

ATP’s general director, Dr Ana Dinis, noted: “With CAYET’s membership, ATP launches ATP Connects Brands, a unique service designed to support and grow brands whose DNA is rooted in Made in Portugal.”

CAYET’s creations are designed for the CAYET Woman—someone seeking a refined, versatile, and timeless wardrobe built with the precision and craftsmanship that distinguish Portuguese manufacturing worldwide.
