Turkey trade expansion and manufacturing growth

Overview

Since late May 2026, Turkey’s Ministry of Trade has utilized e-export programmes and AI-driven tools to diversify market access. By September 2026, Trade Minister Ömer Bolat announced that annualized exports reached $283.7 billion, surpassing the year-end target of $282 billion. Bolat noted that the share of high-technology product exports has risen to 43.7%.

Manufacturing remains a dominant driver. The automotive sector exported $31.1 billion in the first nine months of 2026, a 3% increase, despite a 6% decline in total production (986,584 units). While automobile production fell 17%, commercial vehicle production grew by 12%. In the Sakarya region, Toyota led exports, shipping 98,468 of its 143,778 produced vehicles. The textile industry also contributed $7.16 billion in exports, with the EU remaining the largest market and the United States seeing an 18.2% rise.

Market diversification is accelerating. While the EU remains a primary partner, the United States is a major focus for both textiles and automotive sectors. Agricultural exports continue to show varied performance; while overall volumes fluctuated, dried fruit exports like figs (up 55.4%) and walnuts (up 40%) saw significant growth. Additionally, exports from Turkey’s 19 free zones reached $9.8 billion, a 6.3% increase, with medium-to-high technology products accounting for 58.4% of that value.

Economic challenges persist. The trade deficit for the first nine months reached $71 billion, and the manufacturing sector faced an industrial production decline of 1.9% in August. Despite these pressures, the August 2026 current account recorded a surplus of $4.1 billion.
