Şanlıurfa Will Be The Garment Industry Base Of Turkey

Turkey’s first Ready Wear Organized Industry was laid the base which will provide employment for 7.500 people on 350 decare area and it will bring in a new dynamism to Southeastern Anatolia Region and textile sector which is among the places where unemployment is intense. Minister of Labor and Social Security, Faruk Çelik who talked at the ceremony said “On the region where wars and bankrupts maintain, Turkey is keeping on progressing. These are happening thanks to political stability. If stability didn’t exist, today 200 factories couldn’t carry on business in Şanlıurfa. Just founding factory is not enough, qualified work labor is a must. We are pulling out all the stops for this. Turkish Employment Agency is at our industrialists’ beck and call. I congratulate anyone those who contributed”.

Ready Wear Organized Industry (HOSAB) was required for our 2023 targets

The President of Istanbul Textile and Apparels Exporters’ Association (IHKIB), Hikmet Tanrıverdi said that HOSAB which would be built on 350 decare would provide employment for 7.500 people. Tanrıverdi who mentioned that the first protocol was signed 2 years ago with the Minister of Labor and Social Security Faruk Çelik continued his words: “Our bar is very high for 2023. To be able to catch 60 billion dollars target, we have to increase our share in current marketplaces and besides we have to find new markets. Above all, we have to raise our competitive capacity in global market. The way for carrying out all of these is passing on producing quality as cheap. Although this big contribution, troubles imposed with the production inside is forcing us at international competition. Our government needs to strengthen us to remove these negativenesses. I evaluate HOSAB is a step made in this direction. 350 decare area was separated for ready wear businessmen. This area was assigned for our firms without collecting land participation and substructure cost price. Agreements were signed with 15 firms and assignments were made. On the other hand, one teaser trouble of our country, especially Southeastern Anatolia Region is unemployment no doubt. I find creating employment for 7.500 people very important for social peace contribution as well as economical dimension”.

Low Cost Investment Possibility

Tanrıverdi who remarked that HOSAB which is the first at its field will give low cost production possibility for whom making investment for ready wear sector, also informed that to reach bigger targets, more new projects like HOSAB need to make actual. By stating they will sign cooperation protocol for configuration of Batch Coordination Center, Hikmet Tanrıverdi added to his words that the center which will be actualized with 5 billion TL will meet the requirements of the firms.
