The bilateral Bulgarian-Indian Business Forum is being held on June 2nd and 3rd at the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI) building, organized in partnership with the Embassy of India in Sofia and the Federation of Indian Export Organizations (FIEO).

• Machinery (machine parts)
• Pharmaceuticals and cosmetics (raw materials)
• Chemical industry
• Food and beverage industry
• Textiles
• Medical supplies
• Agricultural products (tea, coffee, tropical fruits, etc.)
The business forum provides an excellent opportunity for Bulgarian entrepreneurs to meet potential partners and discuss opportunities for joint projects and investments.
