Adil Pelister: "Turkish Dental Sector Holds Important Position in Global Markets"
In his assessment of the fair, İKMİB Chairman of the Board Adil Pelister drew attention to the competitive strength of the Turkish dental sector in international markets and used the following statements: "The AEEDC Dubai Fair represents a strategic platform for the Turkish oral and dental health sector in opening up to Middle Eastern, African and Asian markets. As İKMİB, for the seventh time this year, we ensured participation at the AEEDC Fair, where we organized national participation, with 39 companies from our country. The Turkish dental sector; with its strong production infrastructure, high quality standards, competitive pricing structure and flexible production capabilities, holds an important position in global markets. The AEEDC, which ranks among the world's largest dental fairs, offers an extremely strategic ground for bringing these competencies of our sector together with international buyers. Our companies represent not only their products at this fair, but also Turkey's engineering strength, quality understanding and reliable supplier identity. We believe that this organization, which creates ground for new collaborations, will provide concrete contributions to our dental sector's export performance in terms of results. As İKMİB, we will continue our efforts to increase the visibility and effectiveness of the Turkish dental sector in global markets with determination."
