Driver - Growing foreign tourism in Turkey

One of the main tourist destinations around the world is Turkey with approximately 25-30 million foreign tourists visiting the country each year. There is an increasing preference for this destination by middle-income tourists from all over the world as it is a low-budget travel destination.

Moreover, there is an increase in the number of tourists in the country in 2021 after a decline in 2020, which is putting pressure on the existing tourism infrastructure.  As a result, several authorities are encouraging investments in new constructions such as hotels, resorts, golf clubs, and other infrastructure. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the market. Therefore, it is expected to drive the market development during the forecast period.

Trends - Rise in the development of green buildings

There has been a growing popularity for the adoption of green building design and construction practices in Turkey for the past two years since the construction of the nation's first Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)-certified building started in the suburbs of Ankara. As a result, there is a rise in the number of green buildings with approximately 250-300 buildings gaining LEED certification.

Moreover, some of the main reasons for the increasing adoption of green building practices by building contractors and buyers across Turkey include improving building contractors and buyers across Turkey as well as higher energy efficiency, resulting in lower energy consumption and substantial savings in energy costs. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the market. Therefore, it is expected to drive market trends during the forecast period.

Challenge - Rising cost of construction materials

The market is highly dependent on material imports. However, there are significant challenges faced by the country due to the increasing cost of materials and a shortage of manual labor, which is negatively impacting the market. Some of the major raw materials used for construction include cement, iron, steel, and aluminum.

Moreover, the prices of these raw materials are significantly influenced by the increasing inflation and falling Lira value. Furthermore, the price volatility of the raw materials has a direct impact on the profit margins of the contractors. In addition, there was a shortage of construction raw materials, including iron and cement due to the implementation of several large-scale public infrastructure projects in Turkey. Hence, such factors are negatively impacting the market. Therefore, it is expected to hinder the Turkey construction market during the forecast period.
