The country's GDP stands at 64% of the European average. Unlike Romania, we have not yet crossed the 70% threshold. What distinguishes Bulgaria from other countries in the region is that they have higher levels of investment, better rule of law, and stable governments, Petar Ganev from the Institute for Market Economics said for BGNES. 75% of people's income comes from the private sector, and 25% from the public sector. 500,000 people are employed in the industry.
''If we want to attract big industrial investors, we need to have industrial zones. We are lagging behind in developing industrial zones. Turkiye is doing better than us. The overall package we offer the investor - industrial zone, location, staff qualification programmes - is still lagging behind", said Petar Ganev.
