German container shipping company Hapag-Lloyd opened two new offices in Bulgaria aiming to better serve its customers in the Black Sea region and the Balkan area.
The new offices are located in the port city of Varna and the Bulgarian capital Sofia.
Hapag-Lloyd considers Bulgaria an attractive growth market and believes it has a strategic position in Southeast Europe. Hapag-Lloyd operates with three weekly calls, connecting the Bulgarian ports of Burgas and Varna to key locations in the Middle East, the United States, intra-Europe, and Asia.
“Our new offices in Bulgaria demonstrate our commitment to the Black Sea region. Bulgaria is an attractive growth market for us with two major ports and good hinterland connections by road and rail,” said Juan Pablo Richards, Hapag-Lloyd senior managing director in South Europe. “We are very pleased to open our own offices in this strategically important location, which will allow us to better serve our customers in the Black Sea region and the Balkan Area”.
