Burgas attracts growing investor interest following euro adoption

Following Bulgaria's accession to the eurozone, foreign companies have expressed increased interest in investing in Burgas, regional governor Vladimir Krumov told BNR correspondent Daniela Kostadinova.

Chinese, European and American firms are exploring opportunities to establish production facilities in the area of the former military airport at Ravnets and near the Burgas district of Banevo.

One of the region’s long-delayed projects is also expected to start this year: the modernisation and expansion of the Malko Turnovo border checkpoint. The upgrade will include a dedicated lane and counter for heavy goods vehicles, which currently cross the Bulgarian–Turkish border at Lesovo.
