The painful side of the medallion

A year impacted by the pandemic. A year in which the global trade is ruined and many companies in the sector are doing their best to survive the crisis. The Turkish natural stone industry’s performance in this challenging period of course deserves appreciation. However, the medallion has two sides, which is something that should be thought about thoroughly. We are mentioning the export figures of the US market. According to the statistics shared by the US, the year 2020 was recorded as the year in which we lost our leadership in this market to China. It may yet be retaken. However, when we take a look at our income per ton in the US market, the situation reveals itself as a sad scene. Let’s see the figures together.
