increases in worldwide machine price also reflected on Turkey’s machinery exports. The quantity of meat exported to the machine’s Turkey in January rose 0.4 percent compared to last year, while export revenues increased by 3.8 percent. Thus, the Turkish machinery industry, which managed to become positive in most of its main markets in January, when it exported 1.4 billion dollars of machinery, experienced partial contractions only in the USA and Russia.
Saying that they expect the measures taken in winter and vaccination activities to bring about a global revival very soon, the President of the Machinery Exporters Association (MAİB) Kutlu Karavelioğlu said, “Starting from countries with high purchasing power, the belief that demand will strengthen in the spring months in order to meet the consumption needs delayed during the pandemic process has become dominant. This will have a direct impact on all sectors that produce investment or consumer goods. Last year, we achieved a 7 percent increase in January, this year we closed January with an increase of 3.8 percent. In short, we achieved this increase without the base effect. ” He spoke in the form.

Karavelioğlu said, “We aim to export 20 billion dollars machinery this year, believing that the quarantine will not be on the agenda again, and that there will not be similar closures on the supply and customer side.” we will be able to give it to the development of business models and techniques suitable for the digital industry transformation. ” used the expressions.
“We felt the privilege of being the focus sector”
Kutlu Karavelioğlu, who said that adding 5 points more to the additional support rates provided to the machinery sector, which is determined as the focus sector in the Export Master Plan by the Ministry of Trade as one of the highest value-added activity areas, gives morale to exporters, said: The sectoral trade delegations they have established pay for the rent payments of the various units they open for trade, and for the promotion and trademark registration expenses. Global competition has increased rapidly every support given to exporters in this process is opening new doors of opportunity for Turkey’s economy. The publication of machinery sector data on the basis of sections in the Ministry of Trade data and the announcement of our exports as 1.5 billion dollars with an increase of 7.6 percent in January, including free zones, indicate that our export performance is also closely monitored by the public. The data announced by our Ministry both revealed the real power of our industry and made us feel the privilege of being the focus sector. “
“Robotics is one of the focus areas of our technical cooperation with Germany”
The contribution of additional supports and Turkey Promotion scope of accelerating projects Group indicating digital and hybrid events are also included that they intended to use all promotional possibilities at every opportunity in the sector Karavelioğlu, “especially major customers include We have identified an intensive program of activities for Germany came in first place. Our cooperation with well-known sectoral publications will continue to increase. We will increase our contacts with sectoral organizations directly related to our business such as BME and VDMA. Turkey’s prestigious Makinecim held as virtual first time in Germany with the brand we have 10 supporters Robotics and Automation Congress. ” said.
quicker movement should be pointed out that Karavelioğlu of Turkey on robotics solutions in production, “robotics solutions not only in terms of business efficiency, certain technological applications has also become a very important position because it is able to do only by robots. Our aim is to bring in important technical reference and knowledge on this issue to our country.
“The EU – China investment agreement will be on our close follow-up”
Kutlu Karavelioğlu stated that the issues expressed in all negotiations with China by important EU countries, especially Germany, are included in the newly signed investment agreement, and that this agreement is of great importance for the EU in two respects.
Stating that the first feature of the agreement is about the issues that China has not accepted so far, Karavelioğlu said, “The principle of mutual investment, excluding important tenders, incentives and financial mechanisms of foreign enterprises operating in China, is the first to change the current situation. these agreements with some EU member China with a special touch of countries is limited and initiatives are handled under the EU umbrella. this agreement and RCEP includes a composition will increase the effect of each other, indirect machine manufacturers also need to be in the though process. foreign trade is a priority in China’s mention of Turkey should be to stabilize. many of the goods sold in China, it should be preferred to contribute to our industry with investments in Turkey and the sustainable situation. ” made its evaluation.
“The added value created by domestic demand is not half of exports”
Pointing out that high value-added products are at the center of global competition, Kutlu Karavelioğlu said the following regarding the results of the Value Added and Import Inputs report: “When we look at the import input density of our industry, we calculated that direct inputs were 21 percent and the indirect import effect was 12.8 percent. Turkish machinery sector G8 Compared to countries and China, we see that our direct import density is better than Canada and at the same level with France. We are aware that we have a long way to go in terms of domestic intermediate goods and components to catch other countries. we create in 8 of Turkey. we have to increase our efforts to be escaped the domestic machine use because it remains our only 31 percent of the added value created by the dormitory inside the machine domestic demand. Unfortunately, domestic demand arising from the 33 percent value added in Europe, 20 percent goes to East Asia. the added value it creates is not half the added value created by exports. Turkey deserves the support given by large investments in machinery that can not afford the added value meat. “
