Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey

TOBB President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu, who made a speech at the award ceremony, stated that they were very happy to present Nizip's stars with the awards they deserved. Hisarcıklıoğlu said that he congratulated the Chamber, Commodity Exchange and all members who completed elections with great maturity and said, “These elections are a good example of democracy in our community. Remember, these authorities are not the office of receiving, but of giving. Now that the election is over, it is time to join hands and work as one heart for Nizip. In Nizip, both our Chamber and our Commodity Exchange are accredited. So they are a 5 star chamber and exchange. I also congratulate them for this vision. Mehmet Özyurt and I are working together at TOBB in Ankara, at the Council of Chambers of Commerce. He represents you in the best way in Ankara. I say may Allah be pleased with my brother Mehmet, who works with determination to serve Nizip in the best way.I am also pleased to follow the work of our Chamber to protect and brand the local values of Nizip. Nizip Olive Oil, Soap, Eggplant and Mint have been registered and protected by our Chamber with geographical indication.”

- Praise for the Presidents of the Chamber of Commodity Exchanges

Stating that both Nizip Chamber of Commerce and Nizip Commodity Exchange are carrying out efforts that add value to Nizip, Hisarcıklıoğlu said, “They are also looking for solutions by bringing your every problem to Ankara. During the pandemic, they were interpreters of your troubles. They have collected your problems and suggestions. Together, we have communicated these to the government, which is in charge. We also got results from a significant part of them. A lot of support and arrangements have been implemented. But our troubles are not over, of course there are problems. We constantly express these and strive to provide solutions. We convey your problems and demands to all our Ministers. At this point, let's never forget that. We are the voice of our members and become their interpreters. This is the duty given to us by law. The executive authority and responsibility belongs to our government.”

TOBB President Hisarcıklıoğlu, who emphasized unity and solidarity in his speech, said: “When we are one and together, Allah gives mercy and blessing. As long as we don't marginalize each other. Let's not exclude anyone because of their opinion, their beliefs, their opinions. Finally, let me end with 2 good news. We built a school in Antep. Our Chamber and Commodity Exchange requested a school from us here as well. As TOBB, we will build a school in Nizip. The second good news is that our dream of producing a national car, left unfinished 60 years ago, has become a reality.We opened our TOGG factory on October 29. As of March 2023, we will start to see our car on the roads. To have succeeded in this initiative, of which our community is a founding partner, is a source of pride for all of us. Our Nizip CCI is doing another good job today. It rewards our entrepreneurial brothers who add value to Nizip. Anyway, what our culture says, ingenuity begets compliment. I wholeheartedly congratulate all my entrepreneur brothers and sisters who will receive awards for their contribution to the Nizip economy.”
