The organization of the Turkish fresh produce exhibition Fresh Antalya visited Berlin to attend Fruit Logistica, looking to connect with the Turkish stands, Raghad Shvehneh, overseas visitor representative of Fresh Antalya explains: "We visited Fruit Logistica with our ANFAŞ Board of Directors members Mr. Ziya Özden Tezgel, Mr. Ahmet Çayır, West Mediterranean Exporters Association President Ümit Mirza Çavuşoğlu, Fresh Antalya Project Manager Buse Özbilek and myself, and held important meetings with leading companies and international business partners in the sector."
Shvehneh emphasizes that during Fruit Logistica, they also met with companies from other countries, hoping they too would attend Fresh Antalya. "As part of our visit, we visited the stands of 73 Turkish companies participating in Fruit Logistica and evaluated the opportunities that will further strengthen our companies' position in the international market. We've put in the effort to have them join the Fresh Antalya exhibition as well. Reflecting Turkey's power and potential in fresh fruit and vegetable exports, these companies had the chance to come together with the most important actors of global trade and develop their cooperation. We've also held meetings with the Egyptian and Dominican Associations, to open special pavilions for them in Fresh Antalya and our meetings to involve different countries are continuing."
According to Shvehneh, interest in the trade fair in Antalya is increasing: "We held important meetings to accelerate Fresh Antalya's international visitor activities and host sector professionals in Antalya. Contacts with buyers and suppliers from Europe, the Middle East, and Asia have shown once again that interest in our fair is increasing day by day. Thanks to the meetings held with foreign buyers, we aim to increase Fresh Antalya's global awareness and attract more international participants to our fair."
"Fruit Logistica 2025 offered a great opportunity to strengthen our exhibition's position in the sector, establish new business connections, and ensure that Turkish companies gain more space in the global market. As ANFAŞ, we continue our efforts to contribute to the sector and make Antalya an international trade center without slowing down," Shvehneh concludes.
Fresh Antalya will take place on September 18-20, 2025, in Antalya, Turkey.
