Bedri Girit, Chair of the Aegean Fisheries and Animal Products Exporters’ Association, said at the Summer Fancy Food Show that Turkish food exporters had the second largest participation after Italy.

We are taking firm steps toward our goal of 5 billion dollars in food exports to the United States,” Girit added…
