Pay attention to France and Italy
We should pay attention to two European countries while examining the export figures. First, France. The momentum in the French market, which has been growing since 2016 step by step, continues. Having ranked as the 8th country to which Turkey exported natural stone the most in 2017, France climbed up to the 5th position, leaving behind Israel, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates. Also, our income from block export to Italy continues to rise. In the first eight months of 2019, our income from block export to Italy increased by 24.7%.4
