Porntugal Celebrates XBIZ Europa Awards Nomination

LOS ANGELES — Porntugal.com is celebrating its nomination for the inaugural XBIZ Europa Awards. The site earned a nod for Hardcore Site of the Year.

Operators of the site, billed as “the home of Portuguese porn,” expressed gratitude for the recognition. “We are proud to receive this nomination and to be in a list with the best names in the industry,” said CEO Carlos Ferreira.

“It’s very difficult to produce adult content in Portugal and manage to find local talent, but finally our work and efforts are recognized.”
