State-owned dairy company LB Bulgaricum will start modernising its production facility in Vidin in September.

The first step will be to renovate the refrigeration units and repave the alleys leading to the workshops and the car park in front of the building, the company said.

The state-owned company did not disclose the cost of the investment, but a gradual replacement of outdated equipment is also planned. This will allow the production of larger quantities of fresh milk, cow's butter and processed cheese, Economy Minister Petko Nikolov told journalists.

Since 1 May this year, the company's employees have received a 10% pay rise, and since 1 September they have received a further pay rise, with the aim of achieving a 30% pay rise by the end of the year.
