Ministry of Commerce, Ankara Chamber of Commerce, explore trade and investment cooperation
The Ministry of Commerce and the Ankara Chamber of Commerce have explored trade and investment cooperation between Cambodia and Türkiye.
A discussion was held on Nov. 3 in Ankara between Mrs. Cham Nimul, Minister of Commerce of Cambodia, who is leading a delegation for an official visit to Türkiye, and Mr. Gürsel Baran, President of the Ankara Chamber of Commerce, and his colleagues.
In the meeting, Mr. Gürsel Baran expressed his great pleasure and extended a warm welcome to H.E. Minister and the Cambodian delegation for visiting the Ankara Chamber of Commerce. He noted that this was the first visit by a high-ranking Cambodian leader to the Chamber, marking a valuable opportunity to expand cooperation and promote trade between Cambodia and Türkiye.
On the occasion, both sides reviewed the progress of bilateral trade and exchanged views on mechanisms to further enhance trade, with the shared goal of reaching $1 billion in bilateral trade in the near future.
For her part, Nimul highlighted four priority sectors with strong potential for collaboration—medical equipment, health tourism, textiles and clothing, and construction—and invited Turkish business leaders and investors to explore opportunities and potential partners in Cambodia.
In response, Mr. Baran expressed his commitment to strengthening cooperation and announced a plan for a delegation of Turkish businessmen and investors to visit Cambodia in early 2026 to hold a business matching event with Cambodian companies and enterprises.
The Ankara Chamber of Commerce, established in 1923, has over 170,000 member companies and enterprises, making it one of the most critical institutions supporting economic development, trade, and investment—particularly Ankara, the capital city of Türkiye.
On the same day, Nimul also met with Hasan GÜMÜŞ, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Yayla Company, to discuss importing rice, cashew nuts, dried fruits, and other nuts from Cambodia for processing to meet the needs of the Turkish market and for export to European and Middle Eastern markets.
