“For the past ten years annual trade between Bulgaria and France has stood at over 1 billion euro with a growth rate of 61.2 percent. French investments in Bulgaria are in excess of 1.3 billion euro and France is a strategic trade and economic partner,” said President Rosen Plevneliev at a meeting with French businesses, the first event during his working visit to Paris.
