The government reviewed key projects for new foreign investments in the municipalities of Pleven, Maritsa-Plovdiv and Shumen amounting to EUR 500 million, Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov has announced. “Bringing in investors capable of creating high added value, and hence better pay for the workers – this is the best kind of social policy… This is the way we can catch up with the average salaries in Europe and attain a normal European way of life,” the prime minister said.
In Pleven the Rubin glassworks will be expanded – a 300-ton furnace and warehouses will be built and the carbon emissions will be reduced. Around 150 jobs will be created. In the municipality of Maritsa, an innovative production building with renewable energy sources will be built, the first of its kind in Central and Eastern Europe. 105 jobs will be created. In Shumen the production of aluminum alloys is being expanded, creating 136 jobs.
