"Reforms Will Strengthen Investment and Exports"

PLASFED President Ömer Karadeniz made the following evaluation regarding the Medium-Term Program (OVP) covering the 2025-2028 period:

“We value the approach of the OVP that prioritizes macroeconomic stability and increases predictability. The fight against inflation, the maintenance of fiscal discipline, and the steadfast implementation of structural reforms are critically important as they shape our industry's investment plans.

However, our expectation as the industrial sector is that the program's targets are concretely reflected in the field for producers, exporters, and SMEs. Especially, reducing the difficulties in accessing financing, making energy costs predictable, and improving the investment environment are key to achieving growth targets.

The plastic industry continues to add value to the national economy as one of the locomotives of exports. Our export approaching $6.5 billion in the first eight months of 2025 is an indicator of our global competitiveness. For the sustainability of this power, we expect the reforms envisaged in the OVP to be implemented decisively.

When the resilient structure of the Turkish economy, the production power of our industrialists, and the roadmap outlined in the OVP come together, we believe that the upcoming period will be a stronger production and export period.”
