We will give certificates to our 100 members who signed the most exports in 2021 as a thank you. Our ancestors’ ingenuity is subject to compliment. Based on the motto ‘Unflattering effort is a waste’, we believe that the efforts of the people behind that success should be appreciated and highlighted as much as the success itself,” he noted.
