According to the cited source, production is to move to Romania, where Unilever has a factory in Ploiesti and one in Suceava (following the acquisition of Betty Ice). At the same time, the administrative part remains in Bulgaria. The ice cream factory in Veliko Tarnovo will cease operations on April 30, 2025. The company did not provide specific reasons.

For example, in 2007, the group stopped producing Kaliakra brand oil in Bulgaria and now imports it from its factory in Romania. According to unofficial sources, the company, like many others in the country, is having difficulty finding qualified workers.
