What led to the birth of Forall Phones?
By José Costa Rodrigues CEO & Founder
At the age of 16, when I saw in my small town, Ourém, the ?first? proud owners of the Apple ? iPhone ? I also had the ambition to have this premium equipment.
I decided to ask my Parents, who promptly responded that simply:
?500? for a cell phone was too expensive and, they already anticipated that I would break or lose it, as it was habit.?
I decided to look for solutions: I started selling ?junk? that I had at home, through OLX, and in a hard-earned way I saved around ?300.

The problem continued, as it was not enough for the iPhone.
Once again looking for solutions, I decided to venture into ?the dangerous ? used cell phone markets. With a lot of research and some scares, I ended up buying a smartphone in good working condition, which I ended up using and, shortly after, selling for a profit.
I had, naturally, found an interesting niche, which today Forall summarizes simply: ?premium technology at affordable prices?.
