É já este sábado, dia 24 de março, que acontece a terceira campanha de adoção de árvores.
Na Praça Cupertino de Miranda, entre as 9h00 e as 13h00, os famalicenses vão poder adotar, de forma gratuita, 3 de 17 espécies de árvores e arbustos autóctones para plantarem em casa.
A campanha insere-se no projeto “25 mil árvores para 2025”, que esta semana contabilizou já as 5 mil árvores plantadas.
O grande objetivo deste projeto municipal é a reabilitação de aproximadamente 25 hectares do território concelhio pela plantação de 25 mil árvores e arbustos nativos da região em áreas urbanas, espaços rurais, ao longo das linhas de água e em montes e serras.
Até ao momento, o projeto já superou as expetativas.
De acordo com a planificação, previa-se para os primeiros três anos do projeto a plantação de 180 árvores por mês e, atualmente, a autarquia está a plantar uma média de 278 árvores por mês.
A empresária têxtil Conceição Dias, da Sonix/Dias Têxtil, chegou a acordo com o administrador de insolvência da Ricon para assumir as instalações e os ativos da Ricon Industrial, a empresa-mãe do grupo de Famalicão que faliu no início do ano.
Citada pelo Jornal T, da Associação Têxtil e Vestuário de Portugal, a empresária refere, também, que poderá vir a contratar a quase totalidade dos 300 trabalhadores da Ricon Industrial.
“Temos já assegurado o coração a empresa, todo o seu know how, com as chefias e respetivas equipas. Nesta altura temos contratadas 157 pessoas”, diz Conceição Dias, que no início do mês já tinha garantido a contração de 120 ex-trabalhadores da Ricon.
A nova unidade passará a funcionar com outra designação dentro do grupo, mas antes disso o negócio ainda tem de garantir o acordo dos principais credores.
Quando a Sonix assumiu as primeiras 120 contratações de ex- trabalhadores da Ricon já tinha deixado claro o interesse em alargar esta base para diversificar a sua atividade, mas o grupo Valerius também se apresentou na corrida, focado na contratação de duas centenas de trabalhadores e na aquisição de ativos fabris da Ricon.
O GOSTO DE CRIAR POSTOS DE TRABALHO
Conceição Dias, dá assim mais um passo na afirmação de um grupo têxtil que construiu a partir do zero, em Barcelos, onde começou a trabalhar aos 13 anos, com a 4ª classe.
Antiga costureira, agora empresário, garante que a sua maior satisfação “é criar postos de trabalho”. Em 1984, apesar da casa onde morava ainda ser alugada, pegou nas suas economias, comprou cinco máquinas em segunda mão e iniciou um pequeno negócio de confeção com cinco aprendizas de 14 anos. Investiu 180 contos na DiasTêxtil. Era tudo o que tinha na altura.
Acabou por adquirir a fábrica dos antigos patrões. Depois, vieram as instalações da Mincalça, uma fábrica de camisas que tinha falido. Abriu uma confeção. Assumiu o controlo da Modelmalhas (tecelagem). Abriu uma fábrica na Tunísia. Acabou por juntar a Sonix a este portefólio, atraída pela ideia de ter também uma tinturaria.
Tem, atualmente, um grupo vertical onde emprega mais de meio milhar de pessoas, fatura 60 milhões de euros e exporta 99% da produção.
GANT À ESPERA
Na sequência do processo de insolvência da Ricon, a Gant AB, com sede na Suécia, já fez saber que “aguarda pelo desenlace das questões legais relacionadas com a falência do grupo Ricon / Delveste para determinar uma nova estratégia para o mercado português”. Mas esta foi, até agora, a única tomada de posição da marca depois do braço-de-ferro que ditou o encerramento da Ricon, no final de janeiro, deixando 800 trabalhadores no desemprego.
Nos ultimos 26 anos, a Gant teve uma parceria com a Ricon/Delveste, que envolveu produção e comercialização da marca, mas em janeiro as oito empresas e 20 lojas do seu parceiro português entraram em insolvência, com uma dívida de mais de 30 milhões de euros.
Em dezembro, Pedro Silva, patrão da Ricon, já tinha escrito aos seus trabalhadores, dando conta de “estrangulamentos financeiros” que deixavam o o subsídio de Natal em risco e uma sombra de falência sobre o grupo. Mas o empresário acreditava que a Gant Company poderia ainda aceitar uma proposta em que entregava o universo Ricon, incluindo a empresa (Delveste) representante da Gant em Portugal, desde que a multinacional se comprometesse a repor os níveis de encomendas às unidades produtivas e assegurasse a sobrevivência do ramo fabril.
O Futebol Clube de Famalicão anunciou, esta quinta-feira, que o avançado colombiano Wilmar Jordán já não faz parte dos quadros do clube.
O ponta-de-lança, de 27 anos cedido ao Futebol Clube de Famalicão pelo Grupo Desportivo de Chaves invocou junto dos clubes razões de ordem pessoal para a rescisão contratual do empréstimo e do contrato com a sociedade detentora dos seus direitos desportivos.
O município de Vila Nova de Famalicão vai ter um dos oito “Espaço Empresa” que serão instalados no Norte do País mediante protocolo que vai ser assinado no dia 9 de abril entre a Câmara Municipal, o IAPMEI, I.P., Agência para a Competitividade e Inovação, a AMA, Agência para a Modernização Administrativa e a AICEP, Agência para o Investimento e Comércio Externo de Portugal.
Esta estrutura concentra todos os serviços de atendimento destinados às empresas e vai funcionar no Espaço “Famalicão Made In”, no atual Gabinete de Apoio ao Empreendedor. O “Espaço Empresa” trará benefícios ao nível da desburocratização e poupança de tempo às empresas sedeadas no concelho, «constituindo também uma forma de potenciar o desenvolvimento económico e social do concelho», revela Paulo Cunha, presidente da Câmara Municipal.
Ao todo serão prestados mais de meia centena de serviços diretos às empresas, para além de informações e esclarecimentos em várias áreas. «É um encurtar de distâncias, possibilitando um maior acesso à informação e um maior acompanhamento às empresas». No fundo, como explica Paulo Cunha, pretende-se proporcionar às empresas um ponto único de acesso, «onde podem resolver os seus problemas, sejam questões relacionadas com o licenciamento, o investimento, mas também terem acesso à informação sobre os incentivos que existem, complementando a informação já disponibilizada quer ao nível dos incentivos municipais, de fundos comunitários, ou as linhas de crédito».
A criação deste novo espaço no concelho representa, ainda segundo o presidente da Câmara Municipal, «o reconhecimento nacional pelo excelente trabalho desenvolvido pelos empresários de Famalicão e pelo profícuo trabalho do Famalicão Made In».
Um famalicense, conhecido por Aníbal – o enfermeiro dos pobres de Vermoim, foi esta quinta feira resgatado sem vida do rio Coura, em Paredes de Coura.
A vitima de 83 anos entrou em paragem cardiorrespiratória e apesar das manobras de reanimação, acabou por morrer no local.
De acordo com a fonte do Comando Territorial da GNR de Viana do Castelo, o idoso “encontrava-se a pescar, junto à ponte de Rubiães, quando caiu ao rio”, por razões ainda desconhecidas.
“Terá batido com a cabeça numa pedra, podendo ser essa uma das causas da morte”, adiantou a fonte, referindo que o alerta às autoridades foi dado “por um outro homem que também se encontrava a pescar e que se apercebeu do sucedido”.
O alerta foi dado cerca das 10h38.
Fonte do Comando Distrital de Operações de Socorro (CDOS) de Viana do Castelo disse que após o resgate, “o pescador foi sujeito a manobras de reanimação que resultaram infrutíferas”.
Ao local compareceram seis homens e três viaturas dos bombeiros voluntários de Paredes de Coura e a ambulância de Suporte Imediato de Vida (SIV) de Valença.
O ciclista famalicense Tiago Machado foi internado na terça-feira de urgência devido a um problema de saúde, que, segundo confirmou a Cidade Hoje, não é grave, mas que o impede de treinar durante pelo menos 10 dias.
“Nós ciclistas também somos de carne e osso. Pena que só damos conta disso quando estamos deitados numa cama de hospital! Bem, meus amigos, na madrugada de ontem [terça-feira] fui hospitalizado de urgência. O mau tempo ganhou esta batalha, pois pela primeira vez na minha carreira atirou-me para a cama do hospital”, escreveu na sua página oficial no Facebook.
Na mesma mensagem, o ciclista da Katusha-Alpecin admite que “não é nada de muito grave” e que “após estas ‘férias’ forçadas” irá regressar ainda com mais vontade.
À Cidade Hoje, Tiago Machado disse que “há coisas mais graves”, mas que mesmo assim tem de ficar pelo menos 10 dias sem bicicleta.
“Só após uma nova avaliação é que a equipa decide quando regresso a competição”, afirmou.

Store and/or access information on a device (397 seeking consent)
Cookies, device or similar online identifiers (e.g. login-based identifiers, randomly assigned identifiers, network based identifiers) together with other information (e.g. browser type and information, language, screen size, supported technologies etc.) can be stored or read on your device to recognise it each time it connects to an app or to a website, for one or several of the purposes presented here.
Examples:
Most purposes explained in this notice rely on the storage or accessing of information from your device when you use an app or visit a website. For example, a vendor or publisher might need to store a cookie on your device during your first visit on a website, to be able to recognise your device during your next visits (by accessing this cookie each time).
Use limited data to select advertising (278 seeking consent, 96 using legitimate interest)
Advertising presented to you on this service can be based on limited data, such as the website or app you are using, your non-precise location, your device type or which content you are (or have been) interacting with (for example, to limit the number of times an ad is presented to you).
Examples:
A car manufacturer wants to promote its electric vehicles to environmentally conscious users living in the city after office hours. The advertising is presented on a page with related content (such as an article on climate change actions) after 6:30 p.m. to users whose non-precise location suggests that they are in an urban zone.
A large producer of watercolour paints wants to carry out an online advertising campaign for its latest watercolour range, diversifying its audience to reach as many amateur and professional artists as possible and avoiding showing the ad next to mismatched content (for instance, articles about how to paint your house). The number of times that the ad has been presented to you is detected and limited, to avoid presenting it too often.
Create profiles for personalised advertising (294 seeking consent)
Information about your activity on this service (such as forms you submit, content you look at) can be stored and combined with other information about you (for example, information from your previous activity on this service and other websites or apps) or similar users. This is then used to build or improve a profile about you (that might include possible interests and personal aspects). Your profile can be used (also later) to present advertising that appears more relevant based on your possible interests by this and other entities.
Examples:
If you read several articles about the best bike accessories to buy, this information could be used to create a profile about your interest in bike accessories. Such a profile may be used or improved later on, on the same or a different website or app to present you with advertising for a particular bike accessory brand. If you also look at a configurator for a vehicle on a luxury car manufacturer website, this information could be combined with your interest in bikes to refine your profile and make an assumption that you are interested in luxury cycling gear.
An apparel company wishes to promote its new line of high-end baby clothes. It gets in touch with an agency that has a network of clients with high income customers (such as high-end supermarkets) and asks the agency to create profiles of young parents or couples who can be assumed to be wealthy and to have a new child, so that these can later be used to present advertising within partner apps based on those profiles.
Use profiles to select personalised advertising (300 seeking consent)
Advertising presented to you on this service can be based on your advertising profiles, which can reflect your activity on this service or other websites or apps (like the forms you submit, content you look at), possible interests and personal aspects.
Examples:
An online retailer wants to advertise a limited sale on running shoes. It wants to target advertising to users who previously looked at running shoes on its mobile app. Tracking technologies might be used to recognise that you have previously used the mobile app to consult running shoes, in order to present you with the corresponding advertisement on the app.
A profile created for personalised advertising in relation to a person having searched for bike accessories on a website can be used to present the relevant advertisement for bike accessories on a mobile app of another organisation.
Create profiles to personalise content (114 seeking consent)
Information about your activity on this service (for instance, forms you submit, non-advertising content you look at) can be stored and combined with other information about you (such as your previous activity on this service or other websites or apps) or similar users. This is then used to build or improve a profile about you (which might for example include possible interests and personal aspects). Your profile can be used (also later) to present content that appears more relevant based on your possible interests, such as by adapting the order in which content is shown to you, so that it is even easier for you to find content that matches your interests.
Examples:
You read several articles on how to build a treehouse on a social media platform. This information might be added to a profile to mark your interest in content related to outdoors as well as do-it-yourself guides (with the objective of allowing the personalisation of content, so that for example you are presented with more blog posts and articles on treehouses and wood cabins in the future).
You have viewed three videos on space exploration across different TV apps. An unrelated news platform with which you have had no contact builds a profile based on that viewing behaviour, marking space exploration as a topic of possible interest for other videos.
Use profiles to select personalised content (107 seeking consent)
Content presented to you on this service can be based on your content personalisation profiles, which can reflect your activity on this or other services (for instance, the forms you submit, content you look at), possible interests and personal aspects. This can for example be used to adapt the order in which content is shown to you, so that it is even easier for you to find (non-advertising) content that matches your interests.
Examples:
You read articles on vegetarian food on a social media platform and then use the cooking app of an unrelated company. The profile built about you on the social media platform will be used to present you vegetarian recipes on the welcome screen of the cooking app.
You have viewed three videos about rowing across different websites. An unrelated video sharing platform will recommend five other videos on rowing that may be of interest to you when you use your TV app, based on a profile built about you when you visited those different websites to watch online videos.
Measure advertising performance (300 seeking consent, 132 using legitimate interest)
Information regarding which advertising is presented to you and how you interact with it can be used to determine how well an advert has worked for you or other users and whether the goals of the advertising were reached. For instance, whether you saw an ad, whether you clicked on it, whether it led you to buy a product or visit a website, etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of advertising campaigns.
Examples:
You have clicked on an advertisement about a “black Friday” discount by an online shop on the website of a publisher and purchased a product. Your click will be linked to this purchase. Your interaction and that of other users will be measured to know how many clicks on the ad led to a purchase.
You are one of very few to have clicked on an advertisement about an “international appreciation day” discount by an online gift shop within the app of a publisher. The publisher wants to have reports to understand how often a specific ad placement within the app, and notably the “international appreciation day” ad, has been viewed or clicked by you and other users, in order to help the publisher and its partners (such as agencies) optimise ad placements.
Measure content performance (138 seeking consent, 56 using legitimate interest)
Information regarding which content is presented to you and how you interact with it can be used to determine whether the (non-advertising) content e.g. reached its intended audience and matched your interests. For instance, whether you read an article, watch a video, listen to a podcast or look at a product description, how long you spent on this service and the web pages you visit etc. This is very helpful to understand the relevance of (non-advertising) content that is shown to you.
Examples:
You have read a blog post about hiking on a mobile app of a publisher and followed a link to a recommended and related post. Your interactions will be recorded as showing that the initial hiking post was useful to you and that it was successful in interesting you in the related post. This will be measured to know whether to produce more posts on hiking in the future and where to place them on the home screen of the mobile app.
You were presented a video on fashion trends, but you and several other users stopped watching after 30 seconds. This information is then used to evaluate the right length of future videos on fashion trends.
Understand audiences through statistics or combinations of data from different sources (198 seeking consent, 67 using legitimate interest)
Reports can be generated based on the combination of data sets (like user profiles, statistics, market research, analytics data) regarding your interactions and those of other users with advertising or (non-advertising) content to identify common characteristics (for instance, to determine which target audiences are more receptive to an ad campaign or to certain contents).
Examples:
The owner of an online bookstore wants commercial reporting showing the proportion of visitors who consulted and left its site without buying, or consulted and bought the last celebrity autobiography of the month, as well as the average age and the male/female distribution of each category. Data relating to your navigation on its site and to your personal characteristics is then used and combined with other such data to produce these statistics.
An advertiser wants to better understand the type of audience interacting with its adverts. It calls upon a research institute to compare the characteristics of users who interacted with the ad with typical attributes of users of similar platforms, across different devices. This comparison reveals to the advertiser that its ad audience is mainly accessing the adverts through mobile devices and is likely in the 45-60 age range.
Develop and improve services (200 seeking consent, 107 using legitimate interest)
Information about your activity on this service, such as your interaction with ads or content, can be very helpful to improve products and services and to build new products and services based on user interactions, the type of audience, etc. This specific purpose does not include the development or improvement of user profiles and identifiers.
Examples:
A technology platform working with a social media provider notices a growth in mobile app users, and sees based on their profiles that many of them are connecting through mobile connections. It uses a new technology to deliver ads that are formatted for mobile devices and that are low-bandwidth, to improve their performance.
An advertiser is looking for a way to display ads on a new type of consumer device. It collects information regarding the way users interact with this new kind of device to determine whether it can build a new mechanism for displaying advertising on this type of device.
Use limited data to select content (62 seeking consent, 22 using legitimate interest)
Content presented to you on this service can be based on limited data, such as the website or app you are using, your non-precise location, your device type, or which content you are (or have been) interacting with (for example, to limit the number of times a video or an article is presented to you).
Examples:
A travel magazine has published an article on its website about the new online courses proposed by a language school, to improve travelling experiences abroad. The school’s blog posts are inserted directly at the bottom of the page, and selected on the basis of your non-precise location (for instance, blog posts explaining the course curriculum for different languages than the language of the country you are situated in).
A sports news mobile app has started a new section of articles covering the most recent football games. Each article includes videos hosted by a separate streaming platform showcasing the highlights of each match. If you fast-forward a video, this information may be used to select a shorter video to play next.
