Türkiye’s electrical and electronics sector achieved its highest-ever January–October export performance, reaching $14.5 billion—a 5.7% increase compared with the same period last year—according to data from the Turkish Exporters Assembly (TIM) compiled by Anadolu Agency (AA).

With global demand showing positive momentum amid the U.S. negotiation-driven trade approach, Türkiye—advantaged both regionally and in workforce capacity—has positioned itself as a key supplier.

Overall, Türkiye’s exports grew 3.9% year over year in the first 10 months to $224.6 billion. The electrical and electronics sector ranked as the third-largest exporting industry, following the automotive sector ($34 billion) and chemicals ($27 billion).

In terms of value growth, the United States posted the largest increase—up $303 million—followed by Iraq ($124 million), Ukraine ($123 million) and the United Arab Emirates ($94 million).

By province, Istanbul accounted for the largest share of exports at $7.5 billion, followed by Manisa with $1.49 billion, Ankara with $1.1 billion, Kocaeli with $871 million and Denizli with $860 million.
