It is expected that the global size of the logistics sector will exceed 12 trillion USD by 2026. Considering that the real trade volume worldwide is 35 trillion USD, approximately one-third of all global trade is directly related to the logistics sector. The fact that the logistics sector is one of the most crucial components of global trade once again highlights the necessity for İzmir to utilize its significant potential in this sector to a greater extent. In particular, the increasing importance of maritime transportation further enhances the value of İzmir’s ports.
With its strategic location, advanced transportation infrastructure, and robust trade network, İzmir continues to be an attractive hub for the logistics industry. In this context, the Logistech – Logistics, Storage, and Technologies Expo, to be organized in İzmir, aims to further elevate the city’s sectoral potential.
İzmir, located at the heart of the Aegean Region, stands out as the intersection point of sea, land, rail, and air transportation routes. Thanks to the Alsancak Port, Ro-Ro lines, and nearby organized industrial zones, the city is positioned at the center of both domestic and international logistics networks.
Our Logistech expo aims to bring together İzmir’s natural advantages with national and international investors. With the city’s strong logistics infrastructure, free trade zones, customs clearance companies, and transportation actors, the expo will host direct business connections.
Within the scope of the expo, industry professionals will have the opportunity to explore numerous innovations such as digital transportation solutions, automation systems, and sustainable logistics. Moreover, B2B meetings, panels, and sectoral sessions will foster knowledge sharing and cooperation.
Our Logistech expo will make a significant contribution not only to the sector but also to the city’s economy, employment, and regional development. For manufacturers in particular from the Aegean Region, the expo will accelerate integration into global markets by opening new export channels.
Within the framework of Turkey’s 2053 Logistics Master Plan, İzmir’s role in this field is becoming increasingly important. In this regard, our Logistech expo will also directly contribute to Turkey’s vision of becoming a regional hub in logistics.
