Certifications and programs

42 years producing for demanding brands

Convés is a private-label apparel manufacturer in São João Nepomuceno, a textile town in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Development, pattern-making, cutting, sewing, embroidery, screen printing, finishing and shipping all happen in the same plant, under the same management.

Every lot is tracked by production order, with cost and lead-time control from cutting to delivery. We make menswear and womenswear, specializing in twill, denim and linen.
