The Changing Competitive Dynamics of Türkiye’s Textile Industry
Thanks to an integrated value chain running from raw cotton to technical textiles and apparel, Türkiye offers strong production capacity in global markets. Yet international competition no longer rests on cost advantage alone; it rests on sustainability, traceability, operational agility, and brand value. While European Union regulations and shifting global supply chain dynamics are creating new investment priorities, the Latin American market offers Turkish manufacturers strategic growth potential.
