Fair Director Engin Er is about the fair: “We have allocated a small section to agricultural machinery companies in the last 3 years at Growtech, the world's largest greenhouse agriculture sector fair. Companies participating in this field were very impressed by Informa's business model and Growtech's international visitor profile. With the potential and wishes of the Turkish agricultural machinery industry to open up to international markets, they asked us to organize a separate international agricultural machinery fair, increasing every year. For this project, which we postponed for 2 years due to the intervention of the pandemic, we carefully analyzed the dynamics of the market, the expectations of visitors and exhibitors, and the target markets of the agricultural machinery sector. In addition, we have made a strategic business partnership with AgroTV Turkey, which has a thematic TV network in target markets for both visitors and exhibitors. In addition to traditional advertising activities, we have jointly planned many events such as roadshows, international conferences where the trends of the sector will be discussed, and international award ceremonies in the 1.5-year period until the fair. We made a rapid entry into the sector in a very short time with our professional approach and international perspective. We have already reached 55% of the m2 we targeted for the 3 months we started the stand sales. We are very happy that we have brought a new excitement to the agricultural machinery sector in fair organization and an international fair for companies to develop their businesses, find new markets and increase their exports.”

Manufacturers in the agricultural machinery sector want to increase their exports

Growmach Fair Director Engin Er; “Agriculture, tools and machinery, which constitute one of the important foreign trade items of Turkey, increase their share in exports as a sector. While its share in our country's exports was 31st in 2001, it rose to 15th in 2020. We see that the sector, which has experienced a slight contraction in the epidemic, has entered the target of growth in production and exports this year. As the fair, we aim to bring export-oriented visitor profile and potential new dealer candidates to our fair. We continue our preparations to provide maximum benefit to our participating companies in the sector.” said.
