About Us

 

With more than 35 years of experience, AJ Manata Jardins merges the lessons of the past with the needs of the future.

 
We combine our long-lasting practical experience of constructing and maintaining gardens, with the growing technical knowledge of a multidisciplinary team, constantly updated in the landscape, forestry and environmental fields.

Our History begins in 1982, with António Jorge da Fonseca Manata, AJ Manata Jardins founder. It was his passion and commitment that led to the company we are today, formed by more than 30 workers with a common goal: to offer suitable quality solutions to each site and each client.

We operate mainly in Lisbon district, offering services to private clients, companies, associations, apartment complexes administrations, public entities and municipal enterprises, among others.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Team

 
The AJ Manata Jardins team gathers professionals from various backgrounds, from Human Resources and Project Management, to Accounting, Landscape Architecture, Agricultural Engineering and Gardening. It’s this multidisciplinary and integrated approach that allows us to match the needs for each site and each customer, at all stages of the process - diagnosis and consulting, planning, construction, maintenance and monitoring.

In order to ensure the constant and up-to-date quality of our services, and in compliance with the legal requirements of the Portuguese Labour Code, we continually invest in the internal and external training of our team. In this context we highlight the technical trainings attended by our gardening professionals in areas as diverse as forestry and agriculture, planning and execution of gardens, irrigation and drainage systems, maintenance and sustainability of green spaces, fertilization, processes and application methods of Plant Protection Products (PPP), tree climbing, pruning and felling operations and collection and treatment of forestry residues.

We also highlight the internal and external trainings and audits that we conduct periodically in our company, in the fields of Health, Safety and Quality.
