Description
Portuguese company TMG Automotive has announced plans to create 160 new jobs in Braga by 2020. The investment was made possible due to a loan of €25 million from the European Investment Bank (EIB). The loan was granted to the company in order to promote innovative and sustainable processes and raise its production capacity. TMG will use the funding to improve its industrial facilities and focus on the use of new technologies, which will reduce fuel consumption and pollutant emissions of cars.
