Abstract
The implementation of export-led growth policies in the 1980s engendered the growth of local industries in Turkey. Among the beneficiaries of the policies was the Turkish Furniture Industry. The Turkish Furniture Industry has since experienced remarkable growth according to Eastern Mediterranean Development Agency Report (2014). For instance, Wang (2019) indicated that among the countries that exported furniture to less developed countries between 2009 and 2013, the Turkish Furniture Industry ranked third only behind Mexico and China. Overall, the industry’s growth trend as captured by Trade Map (2016) showed an upward progression from 29th amongst exporter countries in 2005 to 14th in 2015. As a result of this growth, the Turkish Furniture Industry employed 229,915 individuals in 2016 and made a 3.6% contribution to global furniture production, amounting to US$12.5 billion in the same year. As Türkiye continues to consolidate its position as a strong actor in the global furniture industry, the need to document the trend of production and spatial change engendered by the industry’s transition to new technologies, arises.
