Birthplace Sardoal Training Institution Escola Industrial Machado de Castro Occupation Entrepreneur Biographical Text Fernando Pires Coelho was born in 1920 in the land of Cabeça das Mós, in Sardoal. He was born into a family of carpenters, and at an early age began developing the craft of carpenter. In the late 1930s he moved to Lisbon, where he started to work in the carpentry of Silvério Lourenço, also a native of Sardoal. Working during the day, he took the opportunity to study post-work at the Industrial School Machado de Castro, where he completed the degree of Civil Construction. The economic instability of the country resulting from the external context of the Second World War also affected his job stability. For a few yeats, Fernando Pires Coelho worked for several entities, doing sporadic jobs or never growing towards a career progression. In 1945 he decided to take a chance in the private sector. As an individual, he competed for several works, namely the Elvas Military Barracks, which he won as the first springboard. After some works, he invited his brothers and other acquaintances from Sardoal to join him in Lisbon. However, in 1953 he founded the “Sociedade de Construção Fernando Pires Coelho Lda.”, together with another partner, his brother-in-law Amaro Lobato. Not longer after, the brothers of Fernando Pires Coelho, António Pires Coelho, Joaquim Pires Coelho, Luis Pires Fernandes and Maria da Providência Pereira, also founded a company among themselves, the " Sociedade Pires Fernandes, e Irmãos Lda.". For some years they were competitors in several works, namely in Olivais, in Lisbon. In 1966 they decided to join forces and merge the two companies, forming "Edifer, Constructions Pires Coelho & Fernandes S.A.R.L.", joining the five brothers and Amaro Lobato and deactivating the old companies. In 1967 Edifer began its activity with the construction of a building in Benfica, Lisbon. Under his purview, the company carried out its first major work, which would launch it in the national panorama, with the Lisbon Palace of Justice. Also, under his initiative, he expanded the company's premises, buying land from Amadora City Council and PT (Portugal Telecom). Thus, the company was able, at its headquarters, to include offices, workshops, day care center, cafeteria and training centers that allowed a more complete work environment.
