Bulgaria will soon open a national stand of Bulgarian products at the Shanghai Free Trade Zone, an official said here on Tuesday.

Vasil Gelev, director of the Association for the Promotion of Agricultural Cooperation between China and the CEE Countries (APACCCEEC), said the Bulgarian stand would be opened on Aug. 25.

The Shanghai free trade zone is a successful model of trade and entrance of foreign companies into the Chinese market, he said in a press briefing.

Gelev said on the day of the official opening there would be a tele-bridge between Shanghai and the Black Sea coastal city of Burgas of Bulgaria.

The contract for the Bulgarian stand was for five years, he added.

APACCCEEC was established in 2015 in Sofia to boost agricultural cooperation and trade between China and the countries in the Central and Eastern Europe.
