PARFOIS opened its newest store on Rua de Santa Catarina in Porto on April 17, 2026 , and it's more than just another location on the brand's growing map. Spanning 250 square meters across two floors, the space brings the brand's newest retail concept to one of Portugal's most visited commercial streets.
