Find the Right Supplier and the Product
There is increasing number of buyers that see Turkey as a strong alternative supplier to China with its large production capacity and manufacturing standards offering faster delivery, high quality with affordable prices and stability in supplying orders.
However, Turkish business culture has not yet adopted completely to the online ways of doing business. Most manufacturers and producers do not have online presence and face to face traditional trade is the most preferred method. As we have ground presence in Turkey, we have the market intelligence to find the right producers and the manufacturers for your inquiries which you may not find online or offline.
Minimize Your Risks
With its population being the youngest in Europe, strategic geopolitical location and huge production capacity, Turkey is an interesting and attractive market to source your products from. However, there are still some challenges inevitable for foreign companies to face when doing business in Turkey. Turkey offers a promising but also a complicated and challenging market. Here are the 5 top challenges we would like to draw your attention to when considering doing business in Turkey, all of which can be easily eliminated by having the correct local partner.
Complex Bureaucracy and Regulatory Issues
There are a number of official rules and processes which make it difficult for foreign companies to adapt into a Turkish way of doing business.
The number of English speakers in the country is quite low resulting in communication problems which is potentially the highest risk in getting the right thing done in the right time. Turkish people also value personal relationships and respect of local culture that varies from region to region. It is therefore important that you have a trustable local partner who is experienced and understands the local culture while having a global vision. Payment Risks
No one can deny the possibility of finding himself at a higher level of risk while initiating a transaction with an unfamiliar importer or exporter in the overseas market compared to domestic markets. Different laws, customs, ethics, transportations, credit, currency and many more. Trading in international business is always synonymous with handling these overseas risks and payment is possibly the highest concern part of all. It is best to have a local trustable local partner for ease of mind to act as an intermediate guarantee for safe transaction and clean operation. Performance Risks
Every business depends on reliability and consistency from its suppliers to meet its own performance targets. Yet, it would be unrealistic to deny the possibility of performance failures from suppliers and it is not very likely that you would find out about the problems before it is too late unless you have ground presence in the country you are sourcing from. We have local presence to carefully monitor the entire operation from order confirmation to shipment. Time Differences and Different Working Days
When your supplier is on the other side of the world, it means they are sleeping when you are working and vice versa. Similarly, the country you are sourcing from may have different working days in a week than that of yours in your own country. As a result, you are likely to lose precious days waiting for answers to questions. We have “feet on the street” for you as your in-country representative who can anticipate questions and ensure that communication with the suppliers include all of the necessary details from the start and we make sure we are contactable 24/7.
Maximize Your Efficiency
The challenge of identifying new suppliers, reviewing new products, negotiating contracts and confirming timely supplier production runs is a complex and difficult task. Add in today’s international sourcing structure involving many parties- often globally dispersed with weak lines of communication and you will end up with a huge operational workforce whose capabilities are limited due to distant location, possible risk of failure, missed deadlines and high costs. We will happily lift the heavy operational load off your shoulders so that you can focus on growing and scaling your business with peace in the mind.
