Regional Products Office of Metropolitan Municipality

Konya Metropolitan Municipality is making significant efforts to enhance Konya’s tourism potential, as mentioned by the Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay during his visit to the ongoing construction site of the Regional Products Sales Office, located next to Konya Science Center on the Ankara Road.

The office aims to provide a place where visitors to Konya can access and purchase local products. Mayor Altay emphasized their commitment to promoting local products through initiatives like the “Niyazlık” brand, which produced new souvenirs in the Altın Çarşı transformation. Now, adjacent to Konya Science Center, they are constructing a regional products sales location on the Konya-Ankara Road, especially convenient for travelers heading to the airport. The office is expected to be completed and operational in a few months.

Konya is rapidly transforming into a tourism city, and the Metropolitan Municipality’s goal is to create a space where visitors and passersby can easily acquire local products. As a city with a vibrant industrial sector, Konya produces various geographical indication products unique to different regions. Through cooperatives, they have identified 95 different products that can be produced and will be available for sale in the Regional Products Sales Office, contributing to local development. This initiative not only presents a significant marketing opportunity for their locally-produced goods but also supports women’s cooperatives. The office will serve as a convenient and attractive destination for Konya’s visitors, providing a valuable addition to the city.
