Many companies choose to sew their clothes in Bulgaria, where the production is both cheap and "Made in Europe". Deutsche Welle reports on a detailed report by Deutschlandfunk on business and its dark side - exploitation and low pay.

Approximately 450,000 Bulgarians earn their living working from home, as noted by a report presented by HomeNet Eastern Europe.

Prior to 2009 home workers were mostly retired people or permanently unemployed people. Currently, those two groups are joined by recent graduates - young laywers, economists, teachers and even artists, as explained by the organization.
