“For the past ten years annual trade between Bulgaria and France has stood at over 1 billion euro with a growth rate of 61.2 percent. French investments in Bulgaria are in excess of 1.3 billion euro and France is a strategic trade and economic partner,” said President Rosen Plevneliev at a meeting with French businesses, the first event during his working visit to Paris.

“We want Bulgaria to be an outsourcing destination of choice for French companies,” Plevneliev said and added that this country has been asserting itself as a regional outsourcing centre in the sphere of information and communication technologies and the automotive sector.
