Successful Packaging Business Roundtable Turkey 2024

April 2024 

Organized by Softpower Connections and Global BMT, a successful Business Roundtable was held with companies from Turkey’s packaging sector as part of the III International Circlepack Fair 2024.

Turkey, which has had a free trade agreement with our country since 2011, boasts a robust packaging industry that has steadily grown in recent years, positioning itself among the world’s top 10 producers.

In this context, on April 17th at Espacio Riesco, the Business Roundtable brought together Turkish packaging exporters and Chilean importers. A total of 121 successful meetings were held with the participation of 35 Chilean companies. Exporters showcased various packaging products, such as food containers, biodegradable bags, compostable cutlery, and more, fostering significant commercial ties. Some of the Chilean companies present included Walmart, Cencosud, Tottus, Traverso, Ahorra, Supermercado Único, Watt’s, ICB, Ariztía, among others.

Additionally, a field visit was organized, allowing the 10 Turkish companies present at the Business Roundtable to visit the main plant of BioPlast, tour its facilities, and explore retail stores and malls in Santiago.

Both Turkish exporters and Chilean importers concluded the event with great satisfaction, expressing their appreciation for the opportunity to deepen collaborative relationships with Chilean counterparts and capitalize on the new opportunities generated by Softpower Connections.
