THE LOCATION

Forum Algarve has an excellent location. As you enter through the western entrance of Faro, our building is one of the first you will see. You will certainly feel like visiting us right away.

We’re biased, of course, but our shopping center has truly beautiful architecture!

And what to say about the city of Faro? There is a lot to say and even more to see!

Being capital of district, Faro benefits from a series of services and infrastructures that make it an increasingly complete and great city to live, work, study or spend a few pleasant days on holiday.

Besides Faro International Airport, which is a 5 minute drive from Forum Algarve, this fantastic city also has a university which receives students from all over the country and the world, two hospitals – one public and one private -, and also two theatres, one of which – the Teatro das Figuras – is a 1 minute walk from our shopping center.

As a result, many people come to Forum Algarve for dinner before or after a show at this cultural venue.

What also attracts visitors to Faro is the fact that it is bordered by the Ria Formosa and the Atlantic Ocean to the south. It is well worth walking through the labyrinths of the Ria Formosa and observing the flamingos and other species that live there.

You can do this by taking a boat from the pier at Portas do Mar, one of the entrances to Vila-Adentro, Faro’s picturesque and charming historic center, with various points of interest to visit, such as the Municipal Museum and the Faro Cathedral.

There is no lack of reasons to come to Faro. Even for those who live or stay in other places in the Algarve, you can get here in no time, either by car, train or bus.

QUALITY, ENVIRONMENT AND HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK

Forum Algarve has implemented an Integrated Management System for Quality, Environment and Security and Health at Work. This system is certified under the requirements of the reference standards ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, respectively.

These standards, created by the International Organization for Standardization, are technical documents of international reference, and are therefore tools which enhance the achieving of objectives associated to the quality of the products and services provided (ISO 9001), environmental performance (ISO 14001) and health and safety at work (ISO 45001). This, taking into account the concerns of the interested parties, respect for the environment and risk-based thinking.

Within the framework of its Integrated Quality, Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety Management System, Forum Algarve seeks to develop processes that guarantee the quality of its services, comply with its legal obligations, implement good practices and control environmental impacts, minimise occupational risks and prevent incidents, identify and resolve non-conformities and pursue continuous improvement.
