Mother’s Day Activity and International Collaborations in the Housewares Sector

Mother’s Day Mobility in the Tableware Sector

The tableware sector in Turkey has a size of 12 billion dollars and is among the top 5 sectors with a trade surplus. Also, the tableware sector, which is one of the most branded sectors, has an important place in the domestic market. The strong dowry culture in Turkey and changing trends support the mobility in the sector.

In this respect, he emphasizes that there are no barriers to achieving the sector’s goals and that the sector has a continuous growth potential.
