AACC President Al Dabbagh: Qatari investors believe in the future of the Turkish market

MÜSİAD EXPO 2026 International Trade Fair, organized by the Independent Industrialists' and Businessmen's Association (MÜSİAD) between 23-26 September at Istanbul Expo Center, of which Anadolu Agency (AA) is the "Global Communication Partner", brought together manufacturers, leading brands and international buyers from different sectors.

Saad Al Dabbagh, Founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Asian-Arab Chamber of Commerce (AACC), who attended the fair, said in his statement to the AA correspondent, noting that the organization is growing every year and that there are many participants in the fair from Asia, Africa, Europe and America as well as from the Arab world.

Referring to the depth of commercial ties between Qatar and Türkiye, Dabbagh emphasized that the two countries act in strong cooperation on the basis of brotherhood.

Stating that there are many Turkish companies in the Qatar market and that Qatari business people also carry out important business activities in Türkiye, Dabbagh said:

"This means that this market is very suitable for trade. Otherwise, no one would come to an unstable market. The two countries work very closely. I hope to see more networks and connections between Turkish and Qatari business people. There are already many business groups, but we expect them to become more and more active."

Qatari investors show interest in Türkiye

Dabbagh stated that Türkiye is a safe and attractive market for Qatari investors, and that Turkish cities stand out even in the holiday preferences of Qataris.

Referring to Türkiye's rich sector experience and young Qataris' belief in the future of the Turkish market, Dabbagh concluded his words as follows:

"Especially new generation and new Qatari companies like to invest in the Turkish market. They like to spend their holidays in Türkiye. This means that they love Türkiye and this market very much. In addition, Qatari investors and Qatari business people see Türkiye as a country with great experience in different fields. That is why you see large Turkish companies in different business sectors in Qatar, especially trade, food, construction, medical and education. This means that there is a big market for Turkish companies in Qatar. That is why soon "I hope to hold a fair between Qatari and Turkish companies in Qatar."
