Support for Pistachio Farmers in Gaziantep: Boosting Local Agriculture
“We are supporting pistachio producers by reducing costs and increasing profit margins. We ensure that our farmers’ pistachios receive the value they deserve. By working closely with our farmers on the ground for an extended period, we acted according to their needs. As a result, we started purchasing green pistachios, which has been met with high satisfaction.
No withholding tax is applied; support for transportation and laboratory testing is provided. Products undergo analysis for quality determination and pricing. Our farmers can collect their products whenever they wish, store them, and sell at their convenience. This system has proven to be a solution to the issues faced in the pistachio industry.”
