From Wheat Fields to Global Markets
The “Türkiye’s Top 1000 Exporters 2025” survey released by the Turkish Exporters Assembly (TİM) provides a clear picture of where production and exports are concentrated within Türkiye’s grain processing industry. The findings show that Türkiye, which continues to lead the world in flour exports while maintaining its position as one of the world’s leading pasta exporters, now relies heavily on the Southeastern Anatolia cluster—particularly Gaziantep—as the driving force behind the sector’s export performance. An examination of the flour, pasta and biscuit companies included in the list reveals that this export success is far from accidental; rather, it is the outcome of a strong manufacturing ecosystem, strategic geography and decades of industrial expertise.

When the right information is delayed, production costs rise
Production cost losses do not always stem from raw materials, energy or labor. Delayed detection of quality deviations, discrepancies between inventory records and actual shop-floor conditions, and engineering changes that fail to reach relevant processes on time can also drive up hidden costs. Tolga Küçük, IoT Project Manager at IAS, explains how ERP and IoT integration can provide real-time traceability in manufacturing and help prevent scrap, rework, capacity losses and delivery delays.
