Narciso Ferreira (1862-1933) was a Portuguese entrepreneur in the north of Portugal (Riba d’Ave, in Vila Nova de Famalição).
Since his father died when he was very young, his mother gave him a severe education.
Seduced by the industrialization in the end of the 19th century, he was only nineteen years old when he set two looms in the farm house where they lived in Pedome.
In 1894 he establishes a commercial society together with Manuel Joaquim Oliveira, José Augusto Dias (banker), Ortgão de Sampaio (engineer) and José Fernandes, named Sampaio Ferreira & Cia.
Other factories were built later with the collaboration of his eldest sons, José, Delfim, Alfredo, Joaquim and Raul.
