Our vision

A Bulgarian company should find a Polish partner as easily as one in Plovdiv, and a Polish company should feel at home in Sofia.

Our story

BPCCI was registered in 2013 by Bulgarian and Polish entrepreneurs. Since then it has signed cooperation agreements with the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Sofia Chamber of Commerce, organised economic missions to Warsaw and Sofia, and represented its members at fairs, congresses and conferences in both countries.
