Weekly Summary: salary increases, MICAM and arrest at Lixa mark the news

Felgueiras Magazine13 September 2026 at 16:22

The Weekly Summary from Felgueiras Magazine, presented by Patrícia Covita, highlighted three main news items. The first was the salary increase reaching almost 19 thousand footwear industry workers, with retroactive effects to July.

The second highlight was Felgueiras's presence at MICAM in Milan, where ten companies from the municipality represented one third of the Portuguese delegation at the world's largest footwear fair.

The third main news item was the arrest of a man with three knives during the Festas das Vitórias in Lixa.

In brief news, the summary also mentioned the success of the Feeling Festival, the new commercial offensive by APICCAPS in New York and the arrival of the National Robotics Festival to Felgueiras in 2027. The content is also available in podcast format.

Why this matters

The almost 19 thousand workers in the footwear sector in Felgueiras will feel a direct impact on their income with the retroactive salary increases to July, while local companies have in MICAM an opportunity for international business. The arrest in Lixa and the cultural programming show that security and social dynamism also mark the week in the municipality.

Old tenants returned keys that didn't open the door and the house ended up occupied by 'squatters': court didn't rule in favor of the owner

A Spanish owner tried to hold former tenants responsible for unpaid rent after the house was illegally occupied. He claimed that the returned keys didn't open the door, but the court considered that the delivery of the keys constituted a sufficient act of restitution of possession, rejecting both the eviction request and the collection of rent. The Provincial Court of Barcelona confirmed that, at the time of the legal action, the contract was already terminated and the tenants had already returned the property, with no evidence of any connection between the former tenants and the illegal occupants.
