Turkey Steel Market

The Turkey steel market size reached USD 13.1 Billion in 2025. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 17.0 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.91% during 2026-2034. Robust domestic demand, particularly in construction, automotive, and infrastructure sectors, is one of the factors contributing to Turkey steel market share. Government investments in infrastructure projects, along with export opportunities, also contribute. Additionally, favorable trade agreements, modernization of mills, and growing industrial activities fuel market expansion. TURKEY STEEL MARKET TRENDS: Steel Industry Expansion A new steel production facility has opened in Bosnia, capitalizing on the region’s strategic location and solid infrastructure. The plant will focus on producing various steel products, including industrial structures and prefabricated housing solutions. This move is expected to foster further investments and potentially draw additional international companies to the area, enhancing local economic development. The region’s access to skilled labor, natural resources, and industrial zones make it an increasingly attractive destination for steel manufacturers. With growing support from local authorities, this development could lead to broader industry collaborations, strengthening both the steel sector and the area's economic landscape. These factors are intensifying the Turkey steel market growth. For example, in April 2025, Shahi Steel, a Bosnian subsidiary of Turkish steel manufacturer Sahi Celik, inaugurated a production plant in Gradacac. The decision was driven by the city's strategic location, developed infrastructure, industrial zones, skilled workforce, and natural resources. The new plant would focus on producing industrial steel structures, housing containers, and prefabricated houses. Gradacac's mayor expressed hope that this investment would attract more Turkish companies to the region, boosting local economic growth. Influence on Global Steel Long Products Recent market insights have incorporated price forecasts for Turkish steel long products, reflecting the country's significant impact on global pricing trends.
