Tuna Turagay, President of Turkish Exporters Assembly (TIM) Ismail Gülle, and Chairman of the Board of ÇCSIB Erdem Cenesiz held the opening speech, 71 awards were presented in 11 sub-sectors.
“Our exporters made history in the year 2020”
TIM President İsmail Gülle stated that 2020 was a year that showed the stability and resilience of Turkish exports and said: “Our exporters, who will receive awards today, literally wrote history in the year 2020. The value of their performance will be remembered, perhaps even decades later. Especially after the second half of the year, we had the wind at our back. This wind gave us the courage to announce 2021 as the year of exports. As a result of all this success, we managed to exceed 215 billion dollars in our exports in the last 12 months. Exceeding 20 billion dollars in monthly exports is a success that we are gradually getting used to. We are very proud to add value to our exports and our national wealth. Because we know that Tomorrow’s Turkey will rise only with production and exports.”
“The net current surplus that the three sectors have brought to the country in the last 10 years is close to 25 billion dollars”
Chairman of the Board of ÇCSIB Erdem Çenesiz stated that the sectors operating within the body of the Union have made Turkey one of the most successful countries in the world during the pandemic with their sustainable production, supply and logistics powers and thanked the exporting companies. Çenesiz said that that they have reached 4 billion dollars in exports with 8 percent growth in 2020, emphasized that they have increased the target for this year and stated the following: “The success we achieved in the first year of the pandemic paved the way for us to set bigger goals. As of the first 10 months of this year, we have reached 4 billion dollars in exports. We aim to reach 5 billion dollars by adding more growth to our growth in the last two months. In addition, the domestic added value produced by our cement, glass and ceramics industries has increased three times the average of Turkey. By the end of this year, we anticipate that we will create 3.3 billion dollars of domestic added value. Thus, the net foreign exchange we have provided to our country in the last 10 years will approach 25 billion dollars. With our design culture that is getting stronger and more important, our high-capacity modern facilities, our rich product variety, our flexible structure that can adapt to all conditions, and with our deep-rooted history we will continue to expand our exports.”
