How Does E-commerce Develop in Bulgaria?
  • We observe a turnover in the retail model.
  • We have greater choice and broad access to information than ever before.
  • We are looking online for products and services more and more.
  • We compare prices, we do research and choose where to buy based on customer reviews.
  • Delivery companies are also changing. They are becoming more flexible.
  • The dealers are paying more attention to customer service.
  • We are constantly being bombarded with advertising campaigns and luring promotions.

All of those factors make the good online presence absolutely necessary for almost every business. This is due to the growing number web and mobile device users.

In this way both customers and the country’s economy win. We are about to witness the upcoming changes.
