Rain threatened, but did not in any way detract from the enjoyment of those who visited the Arraial do Recheio Cash & Carry in Braga. We were greeted by the colorful “March of the Neighbors – Dawn”, and as the chorus of “There is no man who does not smile, our service is friendly” was greeted, everyone smiled as they passed by. But the matter did not end there. Gradually, joy spread to those present, and they, along with the marchers, danced around the site.
At the same time, rings and bars were the choice of fans of traditional games, and the younger ones preferred face painting. Yes, because in this camp there is also interaction between generations.
The red and white checkered pattern on the tables identified the first buyers of the treats served in the taverns. The traditional abundance, well appreciated as an appetizer, gave way at dinner to entrecote, chorizo bread and bifana. Conversations and laughter became the ideal “soundtrack” before performances.
Santamaria were the first band to take the stage, greeting fans with some of the most memorable songs of their career. This was followed by a colorful performance by David Carreira, which had the crowd in ecstasy until around midnight when the event ended.
Growing family
The spirit that was felt in the queue before the gates of Recheio Cash & Carry de Braga opened showed the degree of familiarity that existed among the customers of this space. Everyone knows each other and in conversations they exchanged ideas about what the festival would be like this year.
This close connection also extends to employees and partners, which is why the fair is always seen as the highest point of brotherhood and a celebration of friendship that goes beyond the professional sphere – one of the secrets of the success of this event, which is held only on the surface in Braga and in which employees of other divisions of Recheio Cash & Carry.
“Every day is busy, but this day there is a very positive energy. We are all here with great pride and love for the shirt,” emphasized Rafael Silva, an employee of the restaurant. Although Rafael Silva believes it is important to have a close relationship with customers, he emphasized the importance of new customers as a sign of the continued growth of Recheio Cash & Carry de Braga. “We are hospitable, we are family,” he said with a wide smile.
This affective feeling is confirmed by Manuel Barbosa and Sara Fernandez of Grupo Doçuras. Customers of Recheio Cash & Carry in Braga for over 15 years say that “value for money combined with an outstanding team” is one of the good reasons for choosing. Like thousands of people who attended the festival, they believe that the success of the event is based on the “good environment in which we live, in which brotherhood among all is the highest.”
At a glance…. 25 years
The Santamarias, who already have a 25-year career, are also experiencing a special moment. And it was this joyful holiday that the group brought to the stage on a tour with bright themes. “Falésia do Amor” and “Eu sei, tu és” excited the audience, as did the pyrotechnic “juggling” that accompanied the performance. “We have traveled to Portugal and other countries, but I really love being here in this camp,” said Filipa Lemos.
The concept of a party combined with fun is “something that still makes a lot of sense” for the vocalist, and for this reason, “we accepted the invitation with great pleasure and gratitude.”
The 25th Anniversary Tour will continue to cover various themes until next year with a commemorative mega concert. “I am forbidden to disclose the place and date, I can only say that it will be in Lisbon,” he said. Although that didn’t happen, Santamaria took to the stage “with all her energy,” Filipa Lemos said, before admitting that “25 years flew by.”
King of barbecues and festivals
David Carreira, fresh from a week’s holiday with family and friends, was there and Arraial de Braga was the impetus for his return to professional life. “I’m the king of barbecue, so this environment is very familiar to me. I really like her,” he said.
With a legion of very loyal fans, David Carreira took to the stage with his team and quickly won over the crowd. The moving rhythm with a Latin flavor turned the audience into a huge team of dancers. Even those who were unable to get a ticket inside the hall did not move away from the fence until the end of the concert.
After the album “Oyto”, released in May last year, the artist guarantees that “my best work ever” will be released. He added that a set of songs has already been formed and he is currently recording several video clips. However, with the usual friendliness it was said that a new topic would appear in September. Despite our insistence, David chose to keep it a secret.
Family trip to Argentina.
We are told that the atmosphere that exists between customers and staff at Recheio Cash & Carry de Braga is “outstanding”. However, being the “No. 1 Pro Brand of 2023” for the ninth year in a row requires a lot of work on the brand’s part.
Nuno Pinto, Director of Northern Operations, is one of the faces of this hard work for which the festival is ideally suited. “This event at the end of August has already become a tradition. In recent years we have increased employee participation from other Recheio stores and it has worked very well.” Apart from this success, he is also a director who is proud of his existing fame. “Addressing clients by name is a big advantage as it increases trust in our services.”
To further strengthen this affinity, Recheio is offering all customers the opportunity until September 15 to win a double trip to Argentina. It is worth saying that these are very satisfying purchases.
