About us

The Uludag Automotive Industry Exporters' Association (OIB) was formed in 1991 under the title of Uludag Vehicle and Auxiliary Industry Exporters' Association (UTAYSIB) with 246 members and exports of $163 million under the umbrella of the Uludag Exporters' Association. As of 2017, OIB has 4.700 active memberships and it is the sole export representative of the automotive industry, the locomotive of the country's total exports. All exporting main and supplier industry companies in the automotive sector in Turkey are members of OIB, which is a union of coordination for automotive sector exporters.

Continuously active for 27 consecutive years and with an exports level of 25,6 billion dollars by the end of 2017, OIB's share in the total exports of UIB is 87% and as such, it continues to be a determined leader in exports, a status it has maintained for many years.

As the export champion of the last twelve years and Turkey's largest export sector, the automotive industry is in the second place in commercial vehicle manufacture in Europe.

The principal areas of business of the Association may be summarized as:

  • Increasing the export volume of the industry;
  • Informing its members about developments in foreign trade.

The role of the automotive industry in the Turkish economy is steadily growing. Besides its potential for creating high added value, the automotive industry is at the foundation of advances in industrialization and technology and its rate of growth over the years, along with the export opportunities it provides, has made it a significant presence within the Turkish economy.

Because the industry is so integrated with many fundamental and locomotive sectors such as iron & steel, petrochemicals, textiles, glass, electronics and machinery, the input it contributes to these sectors, its sales revenues, the added value it creates, the real export value realized, its tax and wage potential have assigned it a key role in the economy. Moreover, the industry, with its raw material and auxiliary industries, also generates a huge volume of business and employment for the marketing, dealership service, fuel, financing and insurance sectors, all of which are key factors in the delivery of automotive products to the consumer. These characteristics of the automotive industry make it a strategic sector that draws the attention of the entire country and necessitates special planning designed specifically for the sector.
