Today's signing of the concession for Sofia Airport is indicative of the fact that our European partners are welcome in Bulgaria, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov said on July 22 at the signing of the concession agreement for the construction of the site “Civil Airport for Public Use” - public state property.

"Sof Connect" consortium, which operates Munich Airport, has been selected as the winner of the concession tender for Sofia Airport. The consortium includes German, French and Austrian companies. "With such European partners, I am convinced that Bulgaria will move forward. I hope that Sofia Airport will continue to operate as one of the best airports in the region,” Prime Minister Borissov said.

The investments of the concessionaire will amount to not less than 608 million euros for the term of the concession - 35 years. They will be aimed at improving and perfecting the level of service at Sofia Airport, ensuring reliability, accessibility, maintenance, safety, security, health and the environment.
