In line with the decision of the Sectoral Board of the Furniture, Paper and Forestry Products Exporters' Association, a joint participation was organized at Interzum Cologne 2025 through the collaboration of the Central Anatolian Exporters’ Associations, Aegean Exporters’ Associations, Istanbul Exporters’ Associations, and Mediterranean Exporters’ Associations with a 40-square-meter info stand. The Turkish furniture, paper, and forest products sector was successfully represented on the international stage.
This participation, organized by our Association, was an important step towards promoting the sectoral potential of our country, supporting our exporters, and contributing to Türkiye’s foreign trade vision.
The fair was organized by Senexpo Fair Organization, the official organizer of the Turkish National Participation. A total of 1,614 companies participated in the event this year, with Türkiye demonstrating a strong presence. A total of 153 Turkish companies had the opportunity to present their products and services to international buyers.
During the fair, our stand was visited by numerous importers and investors. Information was provided both about our sector and our member companies. Our Deputy Chairman of the Board, Mr. Levent ÖZTEKİN, and Board Member, Mr. Cihat ÇAKIR, visited the stands of Turkish companies throughout the fair and exchanged ideas with company representatives.
During the exhibition, Mr. Hüseyin Kantem AL, the Consul General of the Republic of Türkiye in Cologne, and Mrs. İrem EKMEKCİ KONUK, our Trade Attaché, honored our stand with their visit.
Interzum Cologne 2025 contributed significantly to the establishment of new business connections for Turkish furniture, paper, and forest products exporters, as well as reinforcing Türkiye’s strong position in the sector.
