FROM THE CHAIRMAN
The year 2025, which we have now left behind, was a period in which changes accelerated on a global scale and competition and transformation became increasingly evident. During this period, the strategic importance of our sector once again came to the forefront, while the continuity of production, the resilience of supply chains, and supply security gained greater prominence than ever before.

As the inheritors of a deep-rooted agricultural tradition, we continued to produce, develop, and further strengthen our presence in world markets, drawing strength from the abundance of Anatolia. Thanks to the determination, dynamism, and innovative approach of our exporting companies, our sector strengthened its effectiveness in international markets throughout 2025.
Throughout the year, we continued to enhance the global visibility of our sector through our participation in trade fairs, trade delegation programs, and promotional activities. At the same time, through the strong partnerships we established, we reinforced not only our commercial ties but also our long-term relationships based on mutual trust.
We believe that the food sector is not only an area of economic activity but also a vital element that directly affects the welfare, health, and future of societies. Acting with this awareness, we continue to regard the promotion of a sustainable production approach and the development of a resilient sector structure among our fundamental priorities.
As Turkish Food Exporters, we are determined to continue making the best use of our country’s production potential with the strength we derive from our exporters, to expand into new markets, and to further advance the respected position of our sector in the international arena.
On this occasion, I would like to thank our exporting companies for their dedicated efforts and express my wish to achieve many more successes together.
Nihat UYSALLI
President of Turkish Food Exporters
