Abstract

In 1936 began the construction of the state military factory in Sopot. The factory was founded in 1940 and started manufacturing hand granades, projectiles и explosives for the needs of the Bulgarian army. After the World War II the State military factory in Sopot expanded and became the foundation for the creation of the Vazovski Mashinostroitelni Zavodi. After the unification of the military factories in Bulgaria into the State production cooperative “Metalhim”, VMZ – Sopot became the largest and leading enterprise in it.
