Türkiye records 45% annual turnover surge in June

Türkiye’s economy demonstrated robust growth in June 2025, with the total turnover index across key sectors soaring by 45.0% year-on-year, according to the latest data from the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat).
The index, which encompasses industry, construction, trade, and services, underscores the country’s strong economic momentum, driven particularly by standout performances in trade and services.
Breaking down the annual figures, the trade sector led with an impressive 53.0% increase compared to June 2024, followed by services at 41.1%, industry at 34.3%, and construction at 32.6%. These gains reflect Türkiye’s expanding economic activity, fueled by rising export activities and government investments in infrastructure and housing, as outlined in the 2025 Public Investment Program.
On a monthly basis, the total turnover index rose by a solid 3.6% from May to June 2025. The trade sector again outperformed, growing by 5.7%, while industry saw a 3.3% increase and services edged up by 1.1%. However, the construction sector faced a setback, declining by 6.6% month-on-month, signaling potential short-term challenges in the industry despite its strong annual growth.
The data highlights Türkiye’s economic resilience and the government’s strategic focus on fostering growth across diverse sectors. With a projected GDP surpassing $1.4 trillion by the end of 2025, as stated by Trade Minister Ömer Bolat, the country continues to leverage its export-driven economy and ambitious infrastructure plans to sustain this upward trajectory.
