Location Advantages: Bulgaria offers an ideal environment for conducting business across Europe due to its geographic position - bordered by the Black Sea on one side, Romania on another, Serbia and Macedonia to the north, Greece and Turkey all to its south - it makes up part of Southeastern Europe with an area covering 110,994 km2, making it 14th largest European nation.


Business Opportunities in Bulgaria: Home to over 7 million people, Bulgaria's population is predominantly urbanized and commercial and cultural activities center around Sofia - its capital and largest city - which serves as its commercial and cultural center.


When it comes to economic sectors, Bulgaria relies heavily on natural resources for agriculture, power engineering and heavy industry production; all three sectors also rely heavily on centralized EU laws which create political stability as well as business stability for doing business there.


Lastly, Bulgaria holds membership in European Union, NATO and Council of Europe providing an additional layer of political and business stability.


Low business costs: Hungary offers an extremely favorable tax regime, boasting one of the lowest corporate income taxes and personal income taxes in Europe; labor costs in Hungary also compare favorably with Germany, Belgium and France as well as other EU nations.
