The financial group TBI Bulgaria will support the football championship during the next three
years, Focus agency announced, quoting the President of PFL Valentin Mihov. The change of the
sponsor of “A” group is surprising, because the former sponsor – “Zagorka” brewery, has an
agreement with PFL till June 2006. The doubts that the relationships have done away with also sound
strange, as there has never been any indications for a bad collaboration. "Zagorka" assumed the
support of the championship at the beginning of 2003, and during the summer same year it signed an
agreement for sponsoring “A” group till the end of season 2005/06 with the option of extension with
5 more years. "After a three-month engagement we contracted a marriage for 3 years. It can be
extended for 5 more years", said Mihov at announcing the transaction. Though namely Mihov announced
the forthcoming “divorce”. The Israel holding TBIH Financial Services Group N.V. is at the
Bulgarian market from 10 years and at present they hold “Bulstrad” Insurance Company, “Doverie”
Pension Fund and many other credit and leasing funds through their daughter company TBI Bulgaria.
Both press offices refused to make comments on the arising scandal – TBI motivated with the fact,
that the final conditions under the new agreement should be clear today in the afternoon, and “
Zagorka” said that it is not serious to comment anything, which haven’t happen. "On Thursday
together with TBI Bulgaria, SV-RSA and BFU we organize a press conference, at which we shall
announce all the details. The best thing is that the championship will have a very serious sponsor”
was Mihov’s comment.
