Understanding Market Opportunities and Challenges

Understanding the market opportunities and challenges is paramount for any business looking to import raw materials from Africa. The continent boasts a diverse array of natural resources including minerals, agricultural products, and energy resources, which are in high demand in Turkey’s bustling industries.
