Van Governor Ozan Balcı visited the construction site of 10 new textile factories, reviewing the progress firsthand and highlighting the area’s production potential.
Investment in the Region with Support from the Ministry of Industry and Technology
With strong backing from the Ministry of Industry and Technology, and the resources of the Van Governorship and Metropolitan Municipality, a project has been launched to construct a total of 20 textile factories in Van OIZ. Once completed, this major investment is expected to provide employment for 10,000 people. During his visit, Governor Balcı received detailed updates on the project’s current status from the contractor officials.
“We Aim to Employ 10,000 People Across 20 Factories”
Governor Balcı shared important updates regarding the construction process:
“We are building our factories with the support of our Ministry of Industry and Technology, as well as the resources of the Governorship and Metropolitan Municipality. We have completed 10 factories, and we are now laying the foundation for the remaining 10. God willing, once these are finished, we will have created 10,000 jobs in the 20 textile factories we are building within the OIZ. I extend my sincere thanks to everyone involved.”
