Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of the opening of the company's branch in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Future Electronics was founded in Montreal in 1968 by company President Robert Miller. It expanded into the United States in 1972, opening its first American office in Boston.

The Sofia, Bulgaria branch first opened its doors in 2000. "Our team has been together for 16 years," said Country Manager Antoaneta Petkova. "This gives us a unique combination of experience and knowledge about the market and the company."

Bulgaria is one of the oldest countries in Europe, and is the only one which never changed its name since its establishment in 681.

"For 20 years now, Future Electronics has been a reliable partner for all our Bulgarian customers," Petkova said. "We are very proud to be part of the Future family."

Robert Miller, President of Future Electronics, congratulated the Bulgaria team on their 20-year milestone, and thanked everyone for their contributions to the success of the branch.
