Micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) are frequently established in Bulgaria. They face many unique challenges from all business perspectives: management, finance, marketing, human resources, etc. While MSMEs have certain advantages, the challenges they face are quite different from the ones medium and large companies experience. This article used a mixed-method research design to determine the key challenges of MSMEs in Bulgaria. To overcome their challenges, MSMEs should rely on their main advantages – flexibility, adaptation, and resilience.Downloads
