In recent years, Bulgaria has been collecting and processing 15,000 tons of herbs annually. Nearly 90% of them are exported. More than 200 herbs are widely used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food industries. Active trade covers more than 20 key varieties, reported BTA.
"Mursal tea (ironwort), linden, rosehip, camomile, lemon balm and lavender are among the most sought-after Bulgarian herbs on the international market. The country has a significant potential for further development and increased production and export of various types of herbal tea", said Minister of Agriculture and Food Georgi Tahov. He participated in the opening of the "International Tea Day 2025" in Hangzhou, China, where he highlighted Bulgaria’s strong potential in the sector of herbs and medicinal plants.
