Kardemir emphasized in a written statement that this agreement is a part of its vision to carry its domestic and national production power to international markets.

Delivery will be completed in 5 months

The company stated that the delivery process of the rail sales agreement is planned to be completed within 5 months from the date of the contract. With this agreement, Kardemir aims to reinforce its effectiveness in the global market by increasing its exports in the rail product group.
