aşar Demircan, General Manager of Reis Makina, drew attention to the impact of geopolitical tensions in the Red Sea on production and supply processes in his evaluation for Dünya Newspaper.

Demircan stated that with the Suez Canal becoming inoperative, transportation times have increased and freight costs have risen significantly, directly affecting production costs. He also noted that delays in raw material supply have made production planning more difficult and increased inventory costs. He emphasized that these disruptions in global trade have further intensified cost pressures, particularly in sectors dependent on imports.

On the other hand, he pointed out that Türkiye could enhance its competitiveness in the European market thanks to its geographical advantage and domestic production capacity. Demircan stated that Reis Makina is managing this process with a cautious and strategic approach, and highlighted that such crises can also create new export opportunities.
