Despite the excitement – these results are no reason to take it easy. Managing Directors of the local HOLZMA partner Turhan Makine Ltd., Sinan Turhan und Bülent Esen, agreed: "Both export volumes and import volumes have grown strongly in the Turkish furniture market in recent years. Turkish furniture manufacturers are starting to feel international pressure more and more. Whether low-cost manufacturers from East Asia or highly rationalised industrial competitors from the European economic area – imports are forcing our customers towards modernisation and/or rationalisation. We are pleased to be able to participate in this exciting process with our integrated concepts and solutions and to serve so many renowned Turkish companies."
