Pakistan viable for Turkish construction industry

Karachi, Pakistan | September 25, 2007 by D-8 Secretariat

Pakistan is a very good market for the Turkish construction industry and allied sectors. However, there is a need to properly explore and tap it. These views were expressed by Turkish entrepreneur, Oguz Gurdamar at the residence of Turkish Consul General, Erdem Mutaf, as reported by the Pakistan financial daily of Business Recorder earlier this month.

Oguz Gurdamar is leading the delegation of 33 Turkish entrepreneurs representing 18 companies participating in the 3rd Build Asia 2007 Exhibition at Expo Centre in Karachi.

Gurdamar said some of the participating companies were engaged in talks with Pakistani firms to set up joint ventures for manufacturing wooden and fibreglass doors and windows in Pakistan and export the products to other countries in the region.

He said Turkish corporations were also keen to have joint ventures in manufacturing paints, kitchen products and other equipment used in the building sector. Gurdamar said Turkish construction material is of very high quality and Pakistani companies that had used Turkish products had expressed satisfaction with the products. He said the exhibition would provide opportunities to businessmen to develop more trade opportunities.
