Bulgarias GDP (PPP) is projected at $185.3 billion in 2025. Bulgarias economy is driven by manufacturing, services, and tourism, with agriculture playing a smaller role. The PPP adjustment reflects a low cost of living, significantly boosting GDP. EU membership has spurred infrastructure investment, but corruption, brain drain, and an aging population challenge growth. The IT sector is emerging as a strength, attracting foreign investment. Bulgaria aims to deepen EU integration and expand renewable energy, though political instability and bureaucratic inefficiencies remain obstacles to sustained economic progress.
