The Turkish jewellery industry, which exported ₺3.7 billion in 2020, started 2021 quickly. The sector exported $1.9 billion in the first 5 months. Mustafa Kamar, President of the Jewellery Exporters’ Association, stated that commercial relations with regions such as China and the Middle East, the main export markets, were cut due to the pandemic, and said, “Despite the pandemic and bureaucracy, we exported $1.9 billion in 5 months with an increase of 47% compared to last year.”
