From June 1, 2026, "Bolt Food", one of the fastest-growing food delivery platforms in Europe, officially launches its service in "Burgas" – the fourth-largest city in the country and the most popular summer destination on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Thus, in just over a year since entering the Bulgarian market, the company is now present in "Sofia", "Plovdiv", "Varna" and "Burgas", building coverage in all key urban centers.
The entry into Burgas comes at a time of accelerated growth for the platform in our country. Since the beginning of 2026, the network of active couriers has increased by over 115%, the number of active users and the total number of orders have grown by 100%, and the restaurants on the platform by 50%. Nationwide, "Bolt Food" now brings together over 1,000 active restaurant partners.
What Bolt Food offers in Burgas
Starting today, residents and guests of Burgas can order food from over 70 restaurants through the "Bolt Food" app between the hours of 9:30 AM and 11:30 PM, with an option available to schedule deliveries up to 72 hours in advance. The starting portfolio includes large international chains such as "McDonald's", "KFC" and "Hesburger", as well as established local favorites – "Romance Pizza", "G-SIX Burger & Fitbox" and "La Flor bar & grill".
Why Burgas is a key market
"Burgas" has one of the largest permanent urban populations in Bulgaria, and during the summer months it also attracts a significant number of tourists, which makes it one of the busiest cities in the peak season. This creates sustainable demand for convenient and reliable food delivery solutions – both for local residents and visitors.
Bolt Food's entry into the city fits into the general trend of digitization of services along the Black Sea coast, where competition between restaurants and delivery platforms is intensifying, and consumers expect fast service, transparent prices, and familiar international standards.
The company's position
"Bulgaria has become one of Bolt Food's most dynamic markets in Europe. The momentum we have seen since the beginning of the year – more than doubling our network of couriers, our user base, and our order volume – is an expression of the strong demand and the trust that our restaurants and customers place in us. Burgas is the natural next step in building a truly national service, and we are happy that we will be able to offer our platform to even more Bulgarians before the end of the year.", commented "Dimitar Vutkov", General Manager of "Bolt Food Bulgaria".
According to him, the company plans to continue its expansion outside the capital through better coverage in large cities and entry into additional regions with high tourism and economic potential.
With its entry into Burgas, "Bolt Food" takes the next step towards building a national delivery network that will cover both the major cities and the key tourist centers in the country.
