The present study is provoked by the idea of revealing the influence of the factors of both the internal environment of wine-producing enterprise and the factors of the external macro environment. The subject of study are the factors influencing the activity of wine producers located in the North Central, South Central and Southeast planning regions. The object of study are the economic entities on the market that produce and offer wine from the subsector “Wine Production” in three geographical regions of Bulgaria - North Central, South Central and Southeast. The aim of the research is, as a result of theoretical and practical research, to establish the influence of various factors, grouped in a certain way, on the development of wine production in the North Central, South Central and Southeast regions. The study attempted to combine the two approaches and as a result of the information, a cluster analysis was performed to classify enterprises on the basis of five selected objective indicators - net working capital, income / expense ratio, turnover ratio of non-current assets, turnover ratio, current assets and rate of return on sales revenue. As a result, a difference in geographical location was reported only for enterprises in the South-East region. The factor analysis was conducted on the basis of the subjective perceptions of the respondents about the economic condition of their enterprise and the factors belonging to the macro environment. As a result, recommendations are made for improving the business environment and the relationships among the individual contractors at the appropriate level - company, region, country.

Characteristic of Bulgarian agriculture is the presence of many, mostly small and medium-sized agricultural enterprises, occupying an insignificant market share, which operate in the highly competitive market of agricultural products. This fragmentation challenges agricultural holdings to improve their competitiveness and imposes a realistic orientation towards market innovations, including the formation of logistics chains. Building and improving logistics models is essential for optimizing business processes and generating added value in the sector. In this regard, the main research goal is to construct logistics models applicable in agribusiness. The research defends the thesis that the construction of logistics chains is a market reaction of the business for effective utilization of available resources and generation of added value, contributing to cohesion among the regions in Bulgaria. The results of the study can be systematized in the following areas. First. Based on the surveyed 212 business organizations from different business sectors and 47 agricultural companies that support Internet platforms in carrying out their activities, the main problems facing the business have been outlined and good logistics practices have been identified. Second. Based on a benchmarking study, the strengths and key problems related to logistics in the analyzed organizations were identified. Third. Applicable in agribusiness models have been constructed for the leading sectors of logistics - Transport, Warehousing and Processing and Finishing, depending on the capacity of the organization.
