The fair, which was attended by Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc, convened prominent producer players in the sector as well as several purchasing groups from the U.S., Europe, the Far East and the Middle East. During his speech at the opening ceremony, Arinc said the halal sector would continue producing and exporting as long as it satisfied people's needs.
