The trade between Bulgaria and Egypt grew by 40% in 2022 compared to the previous year and amounted to USD 828.34 million, Economy Ministry reported after a meeting between caretaker Economy Minister Nikola Stoyanov and Egyptian Ambassador to Bulgaria Khalid Emara on Monday.

The past year has also seen a great increase in the purchases of Bulgarian cereals, Khalid Emara noted, stressing that Cairo continues to have a serious interest in the import of wheat and sunflower seeds from Bulgaria. 

The meeting also focused on potential cooperation in the automotive industry, energy sources and start-ups. Various initiatives with the participation of Bulgaria in Egypt were discussed, aimed at the production of components for electric cars and software solutions in the sector.
