Türkiye and Poland are working toward a $15 billion trade target as bilateral commerce reached $12.51 billion in 2025, reflecting steady growth in economic ties and expanding business engagement between the two countries.
Trade data showed that Polish exports to Türkiye totaled $6.03 billion, while Turkish exports to Poland reached $6.48 billion, resulting in a $450 million trade surplus in Türkiye’s favor. Overall, bilateral trade volume has increased by over 50% compared to five years ago.
The figures were highlighted during the Türkiye-Poland Roundtable Meeting organized by the Foreign Economic Relations Board (DEIK), which brought together Poland’s Deputy Foreign Minister Marcin Bosacki, DEIK President Nail Olpak, institutional representatives and business leaders in Istanbul.
Bosacki said businesses in both countries remain focused on achieving the $15 billion bilateral trade goal set by the two countries’ leaders during their meeting in Ankara last year.
She noted that Poland continues to position itself as an attractive destination for foreign investors. "With a strong focus on economic megatrends, Poland offers a supportive ecosystem for innovative sectors, including digital technologies, artificial intelligence and the space industry," she told state-run Anadolu Agency.
Poland continues to attract foreign investors through its Special Economic Zones, which provide incentives for new projects and capacity expansion, while authorities also provide support for market entry and regulatory procedures, she highlighted.
She also confirmed plans to hold the 5th Poland-Türkiye Investment and Business Forum in Istanbul in May, describing it as a platform to connect investors from both countries.
While trade volumes have expanded, investment between the two countries remains relatively modest. Hulya Gedik, chair of the DEIK Türkiye-Poland Business Council, said current investment levels do not reflect the full potential of the economic relationship.
"Investments of $55 million from Türkiye to Poland and $97 million from Poland to Türkiye are small figures considering the potential of both countries," she said.
Gedik added that both countries have strong manufacturing capabilities and can further increase economic cooperation. "Both countries can be considered production bases industrially. That is why we believe the $15 billion trade volume target is achievable," she said.
