Chinese entrepreneurs will build a large forage factory in northeastern Bulgaria.

The factory, which will be located in the breadbasket of Bulgaria – the region of Dobrudja, will process forage plants for export.

This was announced by Bulgarian Agriculture Minister Desislava Taneva after business meetings at the international economic forum in the Chinese city of Suzhou.

The construction permit is expected to be issued in two months and there is interest for building further production capacities.

The Chinese entrepreneurs have already spent a year and a half in Bulgaria on projecting and applying for construction permit, with the building expected to start soon.

Once the factory is built, it will become one of the largest forage production capacities in Bulgaria, daily Sega informs.

Taneva added that the certification of Bulgarian fruits and vegetables for export to China is expected to start soon.

A Bulgarian delegation headed by Prime Minister Boyko Borisov and consisting of seven ministers is on a visit to China for participation at the fourth leaders’ meeting of Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries and China which is scheduled to take place in Suzhou on Tuesday and Wednesday.

On Monday, it became clear that a Chinese company will build a sunflower oil production plant in the industrial zone of Burgas.
