Nazilli Aydin - The Center of Export Activities
Nazilli, located in Aydin province, is one of the most important industrial and agricultural centers of the Aegean Region. With a population of approximately 150,000, the district has become a natural hub for foreign trade thanks to its geographical proximity to the Port of Izmir, access to the Aegean Sea coastline, and regional transportation networks. As of 2012, exporting companies operating in the district have made significant contributions to Turkey's foreign trade balance through their sectoral diversity and production capacities. When Nazilli export data is examined, it is evident that the district possesses a strong export infrastructure, particularly in agricultural products, white goods, machinery manufacturing, and the textile sector.
The production facilities concentrated in the Nazilli Organized Industrial Zone (OSB), the New Industrial zone, and other industrial neighborhoods including Atca, create a strategic advantage for Nazilli companies. According to Turkish Exporters Assembly (TIM) data for 2012, a significant portion of Aydin province's exports was carried out by Nazilli-based enterprises. This reveals that the district is not merely a traditional agriculture-oriented economy, but also possesses a modern, industry and technology-based production structure. When we look at Turkey's overall export data, Nazilli's share in the country's exports is seen to be steadily increasing.
Nazilli enterprises that stand out among Aydin exporters play an active role in global trade networks by exporting to EU countries, the Middle East, North Africa, and Far East markets. According to FAO data, Turkey ranks first in world dried fig production, and a large portion of this production is supplied from Nazilli and its surroundings. The district's export performance showed a notable upward trend in both agricultural and industrial products throughout 2012. In particular, the Uğur Companies Group's broad product range and global dealership network were among the most important factors directly influencing Nazilli export figures.
