Incentives for relocating textile firms offered
12/09/2008
The new incentives will be available from 2009 until 2014 and are designed to turn Turkey's less developed southeastern region into a centre for the textile sector.
At a press conference in Ankara, ministers revealed plans for the textile, ready-to-wear and leather sectors, involving a list of 28 new measures. The government has also guaranteed benefits such as tax breaks, 50% loan aid and zero-interest credit for textile manufacturers that are willing to move from developed regions to developing areas.
