There is chronic shortage of personnel in the wine sector, producers from Plovdiv say. Fewer young people want to work as technologists. The industry fears that the profession may disappear in the future. Annually, about 250 technologists from seven programs graduate from the University of Food Technology in Plovdiv, but few of them remain in the industry.

Prof. Desislava Vangelova of the University of Food Technology Plovdiv told BNT.
