OUR STORY

began in Portugal 11 years ago

A Galician girl and a Kiwi boy.  Deciding to tie the knot - and, together create a bridge across the antipodes.  ​Fr

From that, also grew our business story - starting in 2018 - also in Portugal  - The home of  a 600+ year old legacy that is the  Portuguese textile industry.

We've evolved to where we are now - from the early days - Aroha Iberica (Māori for Love, and the Iberian peninsula), exporting and importing the finest products from both sides of the Antipodes.

And now, we've consolidated - EuroLuxe Linen - bringing the finest Portuguese Bed and Bath linen from mutli-generational family companies - supporting local craftsmanship with centuries old reputation.  Artisans!

TOGETHER

We share our time between Australia, New Zealand, Portugal and Spain.  

We usually visit the annual Portuguese national textile/linen fair, (the Guimaraes Home Fashion Week) and have frequent visits to our manufacturers - who, over the years of our relationship have turned into friends.
