The Bulgarian National Horticultural Union (BNHU) was established in May 2003 as a non-profit organization. Currently the majority of the members of BNHU are major manufacturers of traditional and non-traditional for the country vegetables. One of the Union’s main objectives is to promote the growth of exports and to enhance competitiveness of Bulgarian fruit, vegetables and flowers in international markets.

In order to achieve its goals, BNHU mediates for the establishment of business contacts, informing the members of the Union about organizing exhibitions and fairs in the country and abroad, and when possible assists them to participate in them and many others.

The Union is involved in the development and preparation for the implementation of National Development Strategy for Horticulture in collaboration with the Ministry Of Agriculture And Food and scientific institutes.

The Union’s active position while working on a strategy significantly facilitates the establishment of the Union in the public domain and its adoption as an official partner of the state and public bodies related to agriculture in the country.
