Report Highlights

Following Bulgaria' s accession to the EU, more foreign retailers are beginning to appreciate the increasing levels of political stability of the country and its strong future growth prospects. With a population of around 7.7m people Bulgaria offers a sizeable market for retailers, despite being among the smaller countries in CEE.

Bulgaria' s retail market by value has grown at a strong pace over the last five years, driven by increased consumer expenditure. The market potential in Bulgaria has attracted many retailers from western Europe and elsewhere.

Despite the entry of large international players, the Bulgarian retail market is underdeveloped and highly fragmented.While some obstacles are presently hampering retail development, there are significant growth opportunities for retailers to develop their operations through format diversification and greater regional expansion.
