Turkey is the growing force within the international maritime sector. In the last five years Turkey has improved its shipbuilding industry rapidly and became the 5th big shipbuilding country in the world. While new shipyards are being established day by day (future growth from 50 to 140 shipyards), the present ones incessantly work at full capacity for the next two years. This demonstrates how developed and lively the maritime sector in Turkey has become. |
