'WE WILL RAISE OUR PRODUCTION TO MUCH HIGHER LEVELS'

In this way, we have rapidly responded to the increasing demand for quality steel both in our country and all over the world, especially in Europe. We have never stopped our investments that have brought us to this point in this period. As Tosyalı Holding, we will increase our total production much higher with the focus of these investments. I believe that with these investments, all of which focus on value-added steel production, we will increase our position in the world rankings even further."
