Bulgaria's Kamenitza breaks ground for 2 mln euro construction project

The investment in the Kamenitza Brewery project will create 50 new jobs, the ministry said in a statement.

Last month, Kamenitza sold 30,500 sq m of land in the central part of Plovdiv, Bulgaria's second largest city, to two local companies which plan to develop a mixed-use project there. The plot of land used to be the site of a Kamenitza brewery.

Kamenitza retained ownership of an adjacent 3,500 sq m plot of land on which it will develop the multi-functional complex that will include a craft beer microbrewery and a museum, and is expected to be completed in 2018.
