Turkiye: Turkiye Becomes Global Transshipment Hub for Agricultural Products

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TU2024-0039
Over the last decade, with investments in domestic port infrastructure and storage and owing to Turkiye’s deeper integration in regional and global trade networks, the country has become a major hub for transshipped agricultural products, such as oilseeds, grain, pulses, tree nuts, and juice. In 2022, the value of transshipped agricultural products doubled from just a few years earlier to an estimated record of $4.0 billion. Turkiye’s transshipment trade has a bright future ahead and is expected to keep growing.
