The enterprise universe M. Couto Alves – established in Guimarães/PORTUGAL in 1998 – is placed today as one of the strongest Portuguese groups in the sector of building construction and public works, as a result of a continuous and sustained growth throughout the last decade. Today, working in seven countries, MCA Group focuses its expansion strategy on the diversification and internationalization of its activity areas, with a special incidence – at international level – in the African continent. The group's capacity to mobilize means and resources for the development of vast dimension projects, has led it to stand out, particularly, in the execution of substructure works mainly at the level of road construction, hydraulics and maritime works. The consolidated growth that has been being registered and the projects we are involved in, constitute firm indicators that we are in the right course and that, this way, we can face the future with confidence!
