Sevlievo (Bulgarian: Севлиево [sɛvˈliɛvo]) is a town in north-central Bulgaria, part of Gabrovo Province. Sevlievo is known as one of the wealthiest towns in Bulgaria owing to the well developed local economy, high employment rate and major foreign investments, such as the Ideal Standard Companies factory.[citation needed] It is the administrative centre of the homonymous Sevlievo Municipality.

In 2021, the population of the town was 19 363.[2][3][4]
