The Association of Restaurants in Bulgaria and the Bulgarian Association of Establishments announced that they are launching an initiative called “Freedom for Businesses”. It aims to protect the right to work in Bulgaria’s restaurants via publications in the social media and posters placed on the windows of the catering establishments.

The two organizations stated that they are ending the protests against the anti-epidemic measures, but owners of restaurants in some Bulgarian towns will be able to protest against a possible closure of their businesses. Such a protest is planned in the town of Plovdiv on Monday.
