Abstract: The paper analyses the geographical concentration and sustainability of furniture exports from Bulgaria for the period 2015-2024. The focus of the research is on the main trading partners and the dynamics of foreign trade relationships. The methodology used is based on the application of geographical concentration (GCr) and geographical sustainability (GSr) indicators. The findings of the analysis indicate that a balanced structure, sustainability over time, and limited dependence on external shocks characterise the export of furniture from Bulgaria. Major trading partners account for approximately 51% of total exports, with 74% of them maintaining their positions in the top 5 over the entire analysed period
