Bulgaria’s exports doubled in the past ten years and exceeded EUR 28 billion per year, this country’s Deputy Minister of Economy Alexander Manolev announced during the opening of a business forum for Central and Southeast Europe held in Sofia. Bulgaria’s gross domestic product increased with EUR 15 billion in the abovementioned period. Turkey is the only non-EU country which places among the ten biggest importers of Bulgarian produce.

For the purpose, Bulgaria opened a new trade representation in North Macedonia this year, Deputy Minister Manolev further said.
