Türkiye's Machinery Exports Surge to $18.5 Billion in First Eight Months of 2025

Germany's machinery exports have surged to $18.5 billion in the first eight months of 2025, marking a 0.3% increase year-on-year. This growth, coupled with renewed momentum in exports to Germany and increased demand from alternative markets, signals a recovery in the sector.

The machinery industry in Germany is showing signs of recovery, with postponed investment plans being reconsidered and orders starting to pick up. The average export price has also risen to $8 per kilogram. While there's no significant increase in machinery imports to specific countries, alternative markets like Romania, Morocco, and Ukraine have seen double-digit growth.

Kutlu Karavelioğlu, chairman of MAİB, attributes this growth to Germany's diverse production structure, quick delivery, and qualified service capacity. He also expects global demand to increase due to easing tariff uncertainties. Exports to Germany, in particular, have shown renewed momentum, with a 6.6% increase in August.

Germany's machinery exports have reached $18.5 billion in the January-August 2025 period, with positive trends in alternative markets and renewed momentum in exports to Germany. The industry's diverse production structure and quick delivery are expected to drive further growth, with global demand set to increase due to easing tariff uncertainties.
