Doing Business In Turkey
Now is the right time to explore the prospects for your business in Turkey. With its many and varied opportunities, doing business in Turkey can be highly rewarding for those who are well prepared
Turkey is a large rapidly developing country and EU accession negotiations are leading to significant opportunities for UK companies in a broad range of sectors. Indeed, the country is already Europe's seventh and the world's eighteenth largest economy. Its recent economic growth record, its talented, young workforce and its geographical location as a prime hub for regional market access, make Turkey a hugely attractive destination for UK and European trade and investment.
The business environment is little different from anywhere else. In Turkey you will find the same keen competitiveness, the same thirst for high quality and the same insatiable appetite for trade. Like any new market, if you want to be successful and fully realise your potential, it is crucial to understand the culture and how business operates locally. However, the challenges of market entry should not be underestimated, and UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) provides a full service to prospective investors in Turkey.
