Highlighting the growth of Türkiye’s construction sector, Banu Keskin, the Director of Yapı – Turkeybuild Istanbul, stated: “The construction sector grew by 7.8 percent in 2023, marking its first annual growth since 2017. Activities in earthquake zones and urban transformation projects, particularly the demolition and reconstruction of single buildings, played a key role in this significant growth. In 2024, the construction sector managed to achieve 5-6 percent growth despite the tightening economic policies. Ahead of the local elections, all municipalities prioritized urban transformation initiatives, including retrofitting and disaster preparedness efforts. Moreover, the government has begun implementing new programs to accelerate urban transformation. In this context, accelerated urban transformation activities contributed 1.5-2 percentage points to the growth of the construction sector in 2024. Despite the limited growth in public investments, public construction projects, including ongoing works and priority initiatives, added 1.0 percentage point to the sector’s growth that year. In the 2025 budget, 584 billion Turkish Liras have been allocated for the redevelopment of earthquake-affected areas and enhancing resilience against future disasters. In this context, the resources allocated for the Disaster Resilient Cities Project stand out, totaling 120 billion liras. Considering the potential impact of the economic policies in place and the 2025 budget, the construction sector is projected to grow by 4-5 percent in 2025. Additionally, with the annual increase in construction costs expected to drop to 25 percent, new construction projects are likely to gain momentum.”
