Why Turkey?
Turkey is a large and fascinating market with plenty of export opportunities for UK exporters. Home to both large multinationals and local businesses with a strong entrepreneurial culture, Turkey has strong commercial ties with the UK.
English is increasingly used for business and Turkey has adopted European business ethics and modern management practices. Straddling both Europe and Asia, Turkey's strategic location means it can act as a springboard for UK companies to do business in markets such as Central Asia and the South Caucasus.
