The Pulse 1 store closed but will soon reopen on Rua de João Tavira

Funchal Notícias12 September 2026 at 16:36

The Pulse 1 store, which was located on Rua do Aljube since September 2026, closed its doors. However, the closure is not permanent, as the store will soon reopen in a new location.

The store's new address will be on Rua de João Tavira, more specifically in the building where a hardware store belonging to the Rebelo family operated for years.

The building where the store will reopen is currently owned by Venezuelan emigrants who live in Miami. These owners have already recovered several derelict buildings in the area, contributing to the revitalization of the historic center.

Why this matters

This news is relevant to local readers because it shows a change in local commerce, with a store closing and moving to another location in the city. The rehabilitation of derelict buildings by Venezuelan emigrants may also have implications for the real estate market and the commercial dynamics of the area, replacing traditional businesses like the Rebelo family's hardware store.

In 2025, individual health insurance in Portugal grew more than double that of corporate insurance (6.3% versus 0.9%), according to the Portuguese Insurers Association, in a market that now covers nearly four million people. Insurance offered by companies serves as an entry point for greater appreciation of health protection, but when workers change jobs, retire, or have specific needs not covered by the group policy, they seek individual solutions. The sector observes that both segments are growing in a complementary, not competitive, manner, with the market moving toward a 50/50 balance between group and individual insurance.

Short war cuts Gulf economies' growth</minimax:tool_call>: "Brief war cuts Gulf economies' growth"

The war between Iran, the United States and Israel is stalling economic growth across the Persian Gulf countries, with the International Monetary Fund reducing growth forecasts for the region to just 1.1% in 2026, below the 3.2% previously projected. The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz severely affects hydrocarbon exports, with differentiated impacts: Iran is expected to see its GDP contract by 6.1%, Qatar 8.6%, while Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates resist better, growing 3.1% and 3% respectively. Sectors such as aviation, tourism and hospitality are particularly suffering, with air traffic in Dubai falling 31% and hotel occupancy rates dropping from 80% to 56%, although the UAE is betting on cultural and musical events to recover visitors.
