History

More than eight decades of vision

The story of Grupo Martins Mota begins in the Azores in 1944, with the founding of Farmácia Mântua in Lagoa by Manuel Martins Mota. From this origin, deeply rooted in health, service, and closeness to the community, a solid path began to take shape, built on trust, dedication, and the continuity of a family legacy across generations.

Over time, that legacy was strengthened through a culture of commitment, resilience, and long-term vision. More than following the evolution of Azorean society, Grupo Martins Mota grew with it, preserving the values of its origins and deepening its ties to the communities where it is present.

Today, with Ricardo Martins Mota as CEO, it continues to assert itself as the largest pharmaceutical group in the Azores, expanding its activity into fundamental strategic areas such as tourism and real estate investment, always focused on creating value, enhancing the territory, and promoting a positive, lasting, and active impact on society.
