Bursa Block Marble Fair, where 2,200 blocks of high quality marble in 650 different colors and patterns, extracted from almost all quarries in our country, will be exhibited without processing, will be held in a 50 thousand square meter indoor and outdoor area consisting of 7 halls. The fair, known as the “Heaviest Fair in the Sector” due to the total weight of the exhibited blocks approaching 50 thousand tons, is preparing to bring together invited business people from 60 countries, including new countries, with the industry.’
Ilhan Ersozlu pointed out that business people from many countries such as India, Thailand, Indonesia, Spain, Italy, Egypt, Kuwait, USA, Greece and Portugal will be at the fair to buy Turkish marble from the Turkish manufacturer and said:
‘The world’s only block marble fair, which provides added value to the sector trade with B2B meetings that will take place during the fair and last for four days, has completed its preparations to open its doors. I would like to thank BTSO, IMIB and MADSIAD, who have supported the fair since its first year and made great contributions to its final point in a short time.’
