Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey

At the meeting hosted by Muş Chamber of Commerce and Industry President Erdal Koç, Hisarcıklıoğlu listened to the problems and solution proposals and exchanged views with the representatives of the regional business world.

In his speech here, Hisarcıklıoğlu pointed out that Muş is very important for Turkey, especially in agriculture and animal husbandry, and mentioned that the most strategic sector in the world today is agriculture and animal husbandry. Hisarcıklıoğlu said, “There’s nothing like the Muş Plain in Turkey. You are among the provinces with the most pasture area in Turkey. There are 3.5 million acres of pasture and 800,000 acres of meadow. Pastures are completely natural and you produce milk, meat, fat and cheese in their most natural form. But we cannot fully appreciate this blessing. In Muş, we need to develop both agriculture and the industry dependent on agriculture and animal husbandry. Because agriculture is the most strategic sector, because it is the source of life.”

Pointing out that we have a young and dynamic population in Muş, the TOBB President said that it is necessary to attract labor-intensive sectors to this region. Hisarcıklıoğlu stated that Erdal Koç, the President of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, is also making efforts for this, “He is also my colleague in Ankara. We work together in TOBB's economic policy commission. President Erdal has also started an important work with vision to make Muş CCI accredited.”

Muş Chamber of Commerce and Industry President Erdal Koç gave information about the activities of the Chamber and touched on the effects of the pandemic on the trade of the city. He said that Muş will achieve significant successes in the coming years, especially in the field of textile and agriculture.
