As the westernmost country in continental Europe, Portugal, together with its only neighbor, Spain, forms the Iberian Peninsula. Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, Portugal also encompasses the archipelagos of the Azores and Madeira. Due to its favorable investment climate, Portugal has recently attracted the attention of the international holding company, Oxin, which has already undertaken several projects in the country.
