Eduard Marinov

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: In recent years, Sub-Saharan Africa largely relegated from the priority areas of Bulgarian foreign policy. However, the importance of the region to Bulgaria is determined by its increasing role in both global economy and policy, as well as its immense economic potential and natural resources. The article presents briefly the current state of Bulgaria’s trade's relations with sub-Saharan Africa. Based on a representative survey of 1000 Bulgarian companies, the study analyzes the attitudes of Bulgarian business towards these relations, firstly presenting some general characteristics of the respondents, then analyzing the structure and attitudes of Bulgarian companies engaged or expressing interest in trade with Sub-Saharan Africa. Finally, the paper examines the opinion of Bulgarian enterprises on the reasons why Bulgaria has lost its influence and traditional trade partners in the region.
