Ministry workflows, supermarket checkouts and scientific research rely on Fujitsu technology, while its Portuguese teams provide information technology services locally and abroad. Approaching 50 years in Portugal in 2027, the Japanese company combines Portuguese expertise with its international group’s resources.
“Our customers recognize that we are a reliable partner they can count on over the long term,” said Alexandre Ferreira, managing director of Fujitsu Portugal. Alongside the quality of services, people and products, he credits Fujitsu’s Japanese culture for its commitment to customers.
Public administration, including in the healthcare and education sectors, is a particular strength of the company.
“Our locally developed Smart Business Platform supports the dematerialization, automation and digitization of business processes, being present in more than 90% of ministries,” Ferreira said.

Initially a case and content management solution, the platform now supports wider daily public administration activities. Fujitsu’s Deucalion supercomputer supports research at Minho University.
In retail, Fujitsu serves local and international supermarket brands. Software and connected services are central to its offerings, supported by the group’s strategic acquisition of Germany’s GK Software. Its point-of-sale and self-checkout systems support over 3 million daily transactions across 2,300 stores in
Portugal, complemented by workplace and field services. Portugal has hosted a Fujitsu Global Delivery Center since 2005. Teams in Lisbon and Braga serve mainly European accounts through a worldwide network delivering round-the-clock assistance and projects.
Its wider portfolio serves manufacturing, energy and financial services, covering cybersecurity, hybrid IT, cloud computing, business applications, workplace services and artificial intelligence. With this, Fujitsu is developing into a broader business technology partner with industry-specific solutions, specialized software and related services, complementing its established hardware business.
“Over the past three years, we have grown our turnover, bottom line and workforce, coping with rapid changes in the IT industry and the reshaping, development and transformation of our portfolio. Our plan for the next three years is to continue that growth,” Ferreira said.
