A new factory for the manufacture of orthoses (medical devices protecting and supporting the locomotor system during injuries) was unveiled in the town of Blagoevgrad, Western Bulgaria. The German investment is estimated at more than EUR 10 million and will open nearly 30 new jobs.

Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev and this country’s caretaker Minister of Economy Daniela Vezieva attended the official ceremony. Blagoevgrad is a suitable place for investments due to the availability of workforce, two universities, strong secondary education and highly motivated people, Bulgaria’s head of state Radev said.
