British Chambers of Commerce Overseas
British Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce
After operating in its early years as a UK-based organisation, the British Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce (BBCC) was re-launched in Sofia in 2011 as an independent, non-political and non-profit association with the primary goal to encourage bilateral trade and investment which benefit the economies of both countries, but also to protect the common commercial interests of its Members and voice their opinions, as well as to promote and maintain an ethical standard for the conduct of business.
The British Bulgarian Business Association
The British Bulgarian Business Association (BBBA) was launched in January 2015, with full support from the British Embassy in Sofia and the Bulgarian Embassy in London. We currently have 120 members from all aspects of British and Bulgarian business. Our mission is to stimulate and support mutually beneficial business between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Bulgaria.
