Economic Thought journal, 2017, issue 1, 49-68

Abstract: The article aims at synthesizing the main features of Bulgarian enterprises which trade with Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as of those who are interested in the region. The current state of Bulgaria’s trade's relations with countries from that part of the world is outlined. Based on a representative survey of 1000 Bulgarian companies, the expectations of Bulgarian businesses towards these relations are investigated. Some general characteristics of the respondents are highlighted, analyzing the structure and attitudes of Bulgarian companies engaged or expressing interest in trade with Sub-Saharan Africa. The article examines the opinion of Bulgarian enterprises on the reasons why Bulgaria has lost its influence and traditional trade partners in the region.
