Türkiye's exports to Africa surged notably to hit some $13.3 billion in the first seven months of the year, led by expanding logistics networks and construction projects, alongside ongoing diplomatic and trade efforts based on the "win-win" principle.
The export volume jumped 12.6% compared with the same period last year, according to data compiled by Anadolu Agency (AA).
Turkish exports to Africa rose 16.3% in July alone, reaching $2.3 billion, the report said.
Osman Aksoy, coordinator and chair of the Foreign Economic Relations Board’s (DEIK) Türkiye-Africa Business Council, said that the export performance has been “the most concrete proof of the solid foundation of the multidimensional economic ties between Türkiye and Africa."
