Introduction
Turkey is an attractive market for potential investors: it was ranked 5th in a rating analysis by Business Monitor International (BMI) regarding the Food and Drink industry, Q3 2010 CEE Business Environment Ratings thanks to its large size of population (nearly 73 million), lack of market maturity or saturation, its favorable long-term economic structure and GDP per capita. Additionally, as a major agricultural producer with an increasingly positive food and beverage trade balance, Turkey offers easy access to raw materials. The food and beverage sector, which is largely dependent on the agricultural sector in Turkey, has an important share in the country’s production i.e. a share ranging between 18-20 percent.
