Turkish business association MUSIAD hosts 4-day event

Delegations from 124 countries have gathered in Istanbul for a four-day trade expo.

At the opening ceremony of the event on Wednesday, Mahmut Asmali, chairman of the Independent Industrialists and Businessmen Association (MUSIAD), said they were hosting international buyers from Azerbaijan, Russia, China, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Algeria, Indonesia, Pakistan, and Iran among others.

The 19th edition of the annual event will also feature ambassadors from the D8 countries Turkiye, Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, and Pakistan, he said.

Memorandums of understanding are expected to be signed with the D8 members to boost Turkiye’s international trade.

On Thursday, the International Business Forum will be held at the expo to discuss food security, a pressing issue in the backdrop of food supply bottlenecks due to the Russia-Ukraine war.
