The world's second largest boat and yacht exhibition, the 16th International Marine Equipment and Accessories Exhibition - CNR Eurasia Boat Show, breaks domestic and foreign visitor records.

The Eurasia Boat Show, organized for sea lovers and the compass of the sector, opened its doors more magnificently this year. The fair, where valuable and specially designed boats are exhibited, appeals to buyers from all segments. At the fair, mega yachts worth millions of pounds, which are world brands in the maritime industry, compete with each other.

The world's second largest boat and yacht exhibition, the 16th International Marine Equipment and Accessories Exhibition - CNR Eurasia Boat Show, will continue to host its visitors until December 24. CNR Eurasia Boat Show held at the Istanbul Expo Center also has the distinction of being the most prestigious and colorful organization of the Turkish maritime industry.

“We brought together three giant industries today”

Expressing that they could not organize the CNR Eurasia Boat Show for two years due to the pandemic, CNR Holding Chairman of the Board Ceyda Erem said, “The fair broke the visitor record from the first day. Foreigners as well as local sea lovers show a lot of interest. CNR Eurasia Boat Show, the most prestigious and colorful organization of the Turkish maritime industry, which is the fastest growing market in the world in boat and yacht production and ranked in the top three in global mega yacht production, continues to contribute to the development of the sector this year as it does every year.

Today, with our Boat Show fair, we brought together three giant sectors by holding the biggest meeting of two important sectors. We also opened Export Gateway to Africa, where we will host the representatives of 54 countries in the African continent, which is seen as the market of the future, and CNR Real Estate, Turkey's most comprehensive real estate and real estate meeting. We hope that these fairs will bring significant dynamism to the country's economy.”

“With this fair, we expect to break the export record of the ship and yacht industry in the 100th anniversary of the Republic”

Expressing that they attach great importance to value-added products as an institution that exports 250 billion dollars annually, TİM-Turkey Exporters Assembly Deputy Chairman Çetin Tecdelioğlu said, “The most important item of these value-added products is the ship and yacht sector. The sector realizes an export of 3 billion dollars. Unfortunately, we are not where you want in ship and yacht export. We must increase our exports by producing more. Africa is the continent we currently export to the most. CNR Holding also has fairs organizations in the continent. They have already discovered the market of the future. This is really important. Branding and promotion are needed for more exports. So more fairs are needed. With this fair, we want to export more in the ship and yacht sector and break export records in the 100th anniversary of the Republic.”

  “The sailor doesn't age, he doesn't get old”

Yavuz Sipahi, General Manager of the Marine Department, stated that I spent my life in the seas and that a sailor does not age and does not get old, and said, “We experienced restrictions in our country as well as in the whole world during the pandemic period. For this reason, we had to wait a bit for the world's second largest fair, CNR Eurasia Boat Show. However, despite all the difficulties and developments, we made this opening today with the will of CNR Holding and the participants. Due to the pandemic, boat shows were held all over the world with video participation. These have not been very productive. People want to touch the products exhibited just like in this fair. I believe that from now on, we will do similar events much larger. This fair is essential for us to be assertive in the world.”
