At the OneClickExports event, the Ministry of Trade informed participants about the available government support for SMEs looking to export their products abroad.

Delivering a keynote speech at the event, Richard Marriott, Country Manager of Amazon.com.tr, said: “Supporting SMEs is a fundamental part of Amazon's operations around the world. Globally, SME products account for more than half of all units sold in our online stores. We also continue our programs and investments to empower SMEs in Türkiye. The number of Turkish SMEs selling on Amazon has increased by more than 50 percent compared to the previous year, reaching over 25,000. To date, Turkish SMEs selling on Amazon have created over 35,000 jobs in Türkiye to support their businesses online. With the OneClickExports program that we initiated together with the Ministry of Trade and TOBB, we continue to support the empowerment of Turkish SMEs in e-exports.”
