Within the EU, Bulgaria is in 21st position, in 2019 the country occupied 20th position, the Bulgarian Industrial Association has announced. Electronics accounted for the biggest share of exports in 2020 at USD 3.5 billion.
Over the past five years Bulgarian exports have increased by 20%. By way of comparison, exports in the world have marked a 3% increase over the same period, and a 7% drop in 2020.
