Press release: EuroChem launches new subsidiary in Bulgaria
Zug, Switzerland/Pravets, Bulgaria 15 November 2017 – EuroChem Group AG (hereinafter “EuroChem”, “Group”), a leading global fertilizer company, today announces the official inauguration of its new subsidiary in Bulgaria. EuroChem Agro Bulgaria brings together the assets of leading fertilizer distribution company Agricola Bulgaria, acquired in March this year, and the expertise of EuroChem’s global business as part of the Group’s aim to become Europe’s leading fertilizer supplier.
Based in Pleven, Northern Bulgaria, EuroChem Agro Bulgaria will enable EuroChem to expand its distribution footprint in the country and more widely into south of eastern Europe.
EuroChem is planning to develop fertilizer production facilities in Bulgaria to facilitate the distribution of new premium products to the country’s farmers, and it is investing in research and development to trial these new products in Bulgaria.
