The newest modern office building in Plovdiv - Office Park Plovdiv – was opened on the 25th of October. The event was attended by representatives of local government and public administration, financial institutions, consultants in the field of real estate, and business representatives from different sectors. Konstantin Boyadzhiev, СЕО of Galaxy Investment Group, with the Mayor of Plovdiv Ivan Totev, and Martin Dragoev, Director of Investment and sales in the company, cut the ribbon.

Two of the biggest Bulgarian companies in the field of information technology will work there - SiteGround and Bulpros.

Plovdiv remains a favorite place for launching industrial activities, it became clear during the seminar dedicated to the industrial properties market, organized by the platform “BG stock”. The participants at the event agreed with the idea that industrial projects can happen in cities where there is appropriate logistical resources and conditions. "Industrial Park Markovo", which is located in the southern part of the city, is just such a terrain that has comfortable and attractive location for all types of production activities and logistics, because it is located on the ring road of the city, 5 km from Plovdiv Customs, 10 km from Airport Plovdiv and 14 km from highway "Trakiya". "Industrial Park Markovo" offers land for logistics and production activities of various types. The project of "Galaxy Investment Group" has a total area of 158,000 square meters, where you can easily isolate different size areas depending on the desires and needs of the client. Competitive advantage is the possibility of gasification, making the future production very effective. There are various options for the development of the area in accordance with the specific requirements of investors, and last but not least - competitive prices compared to other similar sites in the area . The development of the "Industrial Park Markovo" is crucial to the growth of the industrial character of the southern part of the city. The area is not overbuilt unlike town of Rakovski, village Radinovo and town of Kuklen. In recent years, many large and emblematic companies have invested in land near Plovdiv. According to observers of the real estate market, this is due to lower production costs and well developed transport infrastructure which supports the process of industrialization in the region.

The 19th edition of Expo Real was held in Munich from 4 to 6 October 2016. The exhibition brought together 1768 exhibitors from 29 countries. Galaxy Investment Group presented their projects, focusing on attractive and innovative concepts with clear competitive advantages, in line with long-term market trends. "Interest in Bulgaria is increasing greatly" said Konstantin Boyadzhiev, CEO of Galaxy Investment Group. According to him, commercial real estate with stable cash flows are the most attractive for long-term investors and Bulgaria has something to offer. Noticeable change is observed in investor sentiment. Historically low interest rates motivate institutional investors to broaden their horizons and look increasingly to the east of their traditional markets in Western Europe, and in recent years, Central Europe. Romania and Bulgaria are standing out on the map, and Bulgaria is viewed more favorably. According to Konstantin Boyadzhiev interest in our market is mostly by investment funds, who are seeking to diversify their portfolio of properties. The most discussed assets of the exhibition were office buildings, hotels, shopping centers and industrial properties. Of course, the projects must meet all modern requirements for sustainable exploitation. As in Central Europe and in Bulgaria the office market over the past five years is driven by IT and BPO companies. Historical growth along with positive attitudes of the representatives of the industry provide a stable basis in this segment for the next five years at least. Weak pipeline of projects under construction indicates the possibility of growth at the rental levels. Secondary locations such as Plovdiv are appreciated positively too. In the talks, which were held at Expo Real, Office Park Plovdiv and Sofia Business Tower are characterized as good opportunities for entry into the office market by foreign institutional investors who turn to attractive projects ensuring both efficient operation and predictable and stable cash flows.
