Türkiye's Logistics

Due to the geographical location of Türkiye the transportation and logistics sector is a very important commercial value.

By sea, highway, airline and railway, Türkiye can benefit from all modes of transport in foreign trade activities. In addition, the transportation and logistics sector is one of the most important service export sectors that earn foreign currency.

Logistics Capabilities of Türkiye

The logistics sector in Turkey has been developing and growing rapidly in recent years. Türkiye's geopolitical position has an important place in the development of the logistics sector. Since Türkiye is in a strategic position between Asia and Europe, it is considered an important transition country in the logistics sector.

In the logistics sector in Türkiye, different modes of transportation such as road, railway, sea and air are used. The most important factors of the development of the logistics sector in recent years can be evaluated as the increase in the export and import volume. In order to keep up with the developing sector, many of the Turkish logistics companies are increasing efficiency by using technology and constantly renewing themselves to ensure customer satisfaction.

Against the positive effects of the sector's growth, factors such as the increase in freight prices, fluctuations in the economy, and the increase in road and toll fees caused logistics costs to increase in 2022. Despite the increasing logistics costs, with the crisis between Russia and Ukraine, Türkiye has the opportunity to become an important base for transit transportation.
