Istanbul Chemicals and Chemical Products' Exporters Association

Companies operating in the services, real eatate sectors and export-oriented industries are keeping a close eye on finance and costs in 2023.

Uncertainties over energy security, supply-related issues and the EU's carbon tax will be high on Turkish companies' agenda in the new year.

But most industries are mainly concerned about energy costs and access to financing.

Counterfeit and low-quality cosmetic products sold in markets, discount stores and online, a growing grey economy business, are imperiling the health of consumers and harming the country's economy, according to sector representatives.
