Even though now its importance has diminished, agro-based products like wheat, olive oil and wines continue to be among the most exported items from Portugal. So if you don’t mind exploring the vast countryside of the country, visit the vast olive groves of the southern regions or the vineyards of the Duoro Valley; indeed Port Wine, Vinho Verde and Madeira Wine are some of the leading wine exporters and thus single men connected with these names can not only help you to sample the finest spirits but also indulge you with a luxurious social life. Portugal is also a quality producer of fruits, namely the Algarve oranges, cherries in areas like Cova da Beira and Alto Alentejo as well as  Oeste region's pêra rocha which is a type of pear.

Fish in rich waters

Yet another traditional economic activity of Portugal is fishing which is still an important sector by way of earnings, both domestic and foreign. In fact Portugal has the third largest Exclusive Economic Zone of the European Union and the eleventh in the world. The Exclusive Economic Zone is a sea zone over which a particular country has special rights over the exploration and use of marine resources. The fishing industry is further helped by the fact that Portugal is one of countries with the highest per capita consumption of fish. Among the most important landing sites in Portugal are the harbors of Matosinhos, Peniche, Olhão, Sesimbra, Figueira da Foz, Sines, Portimão and Madeira. So keep an eye out for owners of large fishing vessels, executives with fishing companies or even officials of the many associations of the fisheries department who are all likely to lead a comfortable life.
