Why you need a power bank in Sofia

Sofia is Bulgaria’s largest city: more than 1.3 million people live in Stolichna municipality (NSI, 31 December 2025). A day here is often spent far from a charger: the metro to work, a meeting in a business park, an afternoon at the mall and an evening around Vitosha Boulevard. Maps, tickets, mobile payments and photos drain your phone just when you need it most.

The capital is also the country’s gateway. In 2025 Sofia Airport handled more than 8 million passengers in a single year for the first time, and the city welcomed nearly 1.4 million tourists who spent more than 3 million nights. A concert, a match, a congress at NDK or a full day of sightseeing: with a HUBO power bank your phone stays charged without hunting for a socket. Take one from a station, charge on the go and return it to any HUBO station.
