The fair, which has become the meeting point of industry professionals, will bring together thousands of local and foreign visitors and hundreds of brands this year.
This giant organization, where the heart of innovation, technology and collaborations beats, stands out not only as a commercial platform; but also as a strategic meeting area that shapes the vision of the industry. Offering unique opportunities for companies that want to open up to global markets, the fair attracts attention with its export-oriented growth strategies as well as revitalizing regional trade.
Participation Strengthened by State Support
The Ministry of Trade’s comprehensive support program encouraging participation in international fairs continues in 2025. Manufacturers that will participate in the Istanbul Hardware Fair will be able to benefit from advantageous incentives regarding area rent, promotion and logistics expenses. Thanks to these supports, the fair becomes more accessible and profitable for both local SMEs and international investors.
Strategic Expansions and Global Networks
