The programs organized specifically for European countries have an essential role regarding the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism which will be introduced in in the near future. I think that face-to-face meetings will be very useful regarding the expectations of European buyers from suppliers."

President Hüseyin Memişoğlu stated Scandinavia, which is known for its recognized brands in the textile and ready-to-wear sector and the importance attributed to quality, is a market with high potential for Denizli and underlined, "The level of welfare is high in these countries, so products with high added value are their primary preference. It is possible to say the quality level of our products is very fulfilling for the consumers of these countries. I believe our exports to these markets will gradually increase in the upcoming period with the support of our international marketing programs.

As DENIB, with the support of our Ministry of Trade, we will continue our activities for the international promotion of our various sectors i in the second half of the year."
