Cotecna opens new office in Bulgaria

Cotecna Bulgaria Ltd complements the company’s current presence in the Black Sea region where it already has strong operations in Russia, Ukraine and Romania.

The new office will be operated by Cotecna’s management team in Romania, and will provide agricultural, fertiliser, mineral and metal services to existing and new clients.

Sébastien Dannaud, CEO, Cotecna Inspection SA says: “We have an ambitious growth plan and a key part of our strategy consists in further investing in areas where we already have a strong expertise such as agriculture and food inspection and testing services”.

“As such, we are delighted to open a new office in Bulgaria, which reinforces our presence as the leading agriculture inspection and testing company in the Black Sea region. We are now better positioned to further increase the support we provide to our clients in the Danube area.”

Cotecna recently announced that it was aiming to double its size in the next 5 years. The company which currently employs 3,000 people located in 100 offices across more than 50 countries, has budgeted CHF200 million to finance its growth.
