Turkey was the market with the highest turnover for Stoll in 2021
Expressing that Turkey was the market with the highest turnover for the Karl Mayer Group’s new business unit in 2021, Vogel said that they expect a similar situation for 2022. Providing information about the most demanded products in the sector, Vogel also spoke about the Turkish market: “Our CMS machines are in particular demand among manufacturers from the fast-fashion sector. Most of the fashionable knitwear is exported, but there is also strong demand from domestic brands. In general, Turkey as a flat knitwear producer serves all segments, from mass-produced goods to luxury items. The close proximity to all consumer markets, the fast delivery times and the excellent quality of the goods are decisive for the top position Turkey holds worldwide. Stoll is proud to operate successfully in this market together with all its customers.”
For the first time on the Karl Mayer stand at the ITM: the new Stoll Business Unit, which represents the Group’s expertise in flat knitting. The new and ready-to-launch CMS 503 in the Stoll range will be exhibited for the first time at the Karl Mayer Group’s booth 714 A in Hall 7 at ITM 2022.
