Grupo Desportivo Fabril is a Portuguese sports club established as Grupo Desportivo CUF do Barreiro (commonly known as CUF Barreiro), with CUF standing for the company Companhia União Fabril. A multisports club best known for its football section, it was founded as a works team in the city of Barreiro, District of Setúbal, on 27 January 1937. CUF Barreiro's greatest achievement was a third place in the 1964–65 Portuguese Liga season. The club's football home ground is the Complexo Desportivo Alfredo da Silva, which was inaugurated in June 1965 and named after Alfredo da Silva, an entrepreneur who was the founder of CUF.
Besides football, Fabril's futsal team has reached top-flight twice in their history, participating in the I Divisão in the 2012–13 and 2016–17 seasons. In the 2012–13 season, Fabril reached the 5th round of the Taça de Portugal.
History
Established as Grupo Desportivo da CUF (G.D. CUF, with CUF standing for the company Companhia União Fabril) in 1937, it also was known as CUF Barreiro, it was one of three football clubs created by the parent company, whose players were also workers (the other clubs were CUF Lisboa, founded in 1936 and now known as Unidos de Lisboa, and the short-lived CUF Porto, that existed between 1945 and 1950). In 1940, the Estado Novo forced the club to change its name, as it didn't allow sports teams with corporate names. Thus the club changed its name to Unidos Futebol Clube or Unidos do Barreiro (CUF Lisboa, meanwhile changed to Clube de Futebol Os Unidos or Unidos de Lisboa). The original name returned in 1944. After the military coup in April 1974 the club was renamed Grupo Desportivo Quimigal .
The club changed its name several times during its history:
- 1937 : The club was founded under the name Grupo Desportivo CUF do Barreiro
- 1940 : The club is renamed as the Unidos Futebol Clube do Barreiro
- 1944 : The club is renamed again as the Grupo Desportivo CUF do Barreiro
- 1978 : The club is renamed as the Grupo Desportivo Quimigal do Barreiro
- 2000 : The club is renamed as the Grupo Desportivo Fabril do Barreiro
