In Portugal and indeed Brazil, business is built on fostering solid relationships through face-to-face contact and respect. These relationships are built with people, not companies.
Initial communication is formal and relies on strict rules of protocol and is a hierarchical culture that respects age and position. Indeed if any members of a negotiating time have to pull out for any reason then it is customary to begin the process again!
