Finnish-Turkish Business Association: Your partner of choice for doing business between Finland and Türkiye

The Finnish-Turkish Business Association was established in 1963 with the aim of contributing to international trade and investment by connecting businesses in Türkiye with counterparts in Finland. Working in cooperation with the Finnish and Turkish chambers of commerce and various government ministries, the Finnish-Turkish Business Association promotes trade, industry, investment and economic cooperation between the Republics of Finland and Türkiye.

The primary goal of our activities is to support both large and small businesses by bringing together as many companies and individuals doing business between Finland and Türkiye as possible, sharing information about Türkiye’s market area and economic environment, and keeping our members up to date about the development of commercial legislation between the two countries. We also organise visits to the Business Association’s member companies and inform our members about current events, articles and publications, trade fairs, etc., related to Türkiye’s economic environment and foreign trade.

Business Association membership is open to companies, organisations and individuals interested in trade between Finland and Türkiye.
