A new investment project in Chirpan will bring employment to about 100 people. The investor in a new shopping park is a company based in Stara Zagora which is building similar ones in three more towns- Gorna Oryahovitsa, Dimitrovgrad and Haskovo.

Among the commercial entities that will open their stores there are large grocery, cosmetics and furniture chains. Convenience, large open spaces and relatively good accessibility make this type of commercial space more and more in demand and preferred over indoor malls.

The Covid-19 pandemic has become a kind of catalyst for the increasing interest and demand in this direction.

Data from this year indicate that 26 such zones are already operating in Bulgaria, and 12 are still under construction.
