The Turkey Federation of Industrialists’ Meeting, organised by Turkey's Industrialists Federation in Sanliurfa, Göbeklitepe between the dates 8 – 10th February 2019 with the heading "The Place Where Civilizations Began – Blessing in Wheat - Göbeklitepe" proved to be of great interest and intrigue. The meeting, supported by the representatives of different associations and institutions, held the purpose of sharing important ideas and information about the sector.
Turkey's Industrialists Federation President, Eren Günhan Ulusoy, started the affair with his opening speech at the Göbeklitepe Lecture Room. In the area central to the crucial excavation, Mr Ulusoy expressed the importance of the meeting with these words, “This visit showcases TUSAF's moral debt to wheat, pacta sunt servanda”.
TUSAF President Eren Günhan Ulusoy’s words continued as follows, "Turkey is one of the rare sectors which are in the world league championships. Our industrialists are now exporting to more than 160 countries and 90 percent of the world consumes Turkish flour.
“Our industrialists, who performed one-third of the world flour trade alone and made it the world's exporting champion for six years, signed a new world record in 2018 as well by performing exports of 3.5 million tonnes in 2018. In 2019, our target is to generate 3.6 million tonnes of flour and achieve 1.25 million dollars of revenue.
Ulusoy continues, "The Turkey seasonal average of 20 - 21 million tonnes of wheat production proves that Turkey is a country that boasts self-sufficiency and remains independent on the outside.”
Mr Selahattin Dönmez, President of the Nutrition Education and Research Foundation (BESVAK), who helped organise the meeting, expressed in his speech, ”If we can stand, walk and carry out our daily activities in a comfortable way, we should not forget that we owe this to wheat and we must continue to respect it and ensure it flourishes.”
The Association of Milling and Sector Machinery Manufacturers (DESMÜD) President Zeki Demirtaşoğlu, who has been participating with some members to support the organisation, emphasised the success of the Turkish milling sector for six years as an export champion and stated that they exported to many countries of the world as machinery sector.
Participants had the opportunity to see Göbeklitepe, the exhibits in the museum and the historical sites in the city also benefited from the important information shared in the conferences and sessions held for two days.
