Bulgaria’s monthly exports to Germany amount to an average of 300 million euro, while trade between Bulgaria and Germany in recent years has broken all records in the history of economic relations between the two countries.

This was announced at a meeting between Deputy Economy Minister Alexander Manolev and the Parliamentary State Secretary at the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy of Germany Oliver Wittke.

Alexander Manolev quoted data of the German-Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce, that around 90 percent of the German companies operating in Bulgaria are willing to invest in the country again if they were to have to take such a decision.

Oliver Wittke expressed satisfaction with the results attained, adding that his ministry was ready to support the efforts to increase German investments in Bulgaria.
