The National Milk Council (USK) will bring together all stakeholders of the dairy sector at the National Milk Summit, which will be held at the Antalya Susesi Luxury Resort from November 20-23, 2025.

The future of the sector will be discussed
During the three-day summit, all components of the sector, from milk producers to industrialists, from the feed and retail sectors to public representatives and suppliers, will come together. At the event, topics that will shape the future of the Turkish dairy industry will be evaluated from a broad perspective.
As part of the program, expert academics, public representatives, and executives of leading brands in the sector will address topics such as the milk value chain, regulations, quality processes, branding, and global competition. Additionally, digital transformation, efficiency, environmentally friendly production, animal welfare, the effects of climate change, and new generation nutrition trends will also be on the agenda of the summit.
Export target exceeds 550 million dollars
The sector's export performance will also be one of the important topics of the summit. In the January-September period of 2025, dairy product exports reached approximately 400 million dollars, an increase of 17% compared to the same period last year. It is aimed for total exports to exceed 550 million dollars by the end of the year.
"It will accelerate the goal of becoming a regional center"
USK Chairman Hamit Can stated that the summit will make a significant contribution to Turkey's goal of becoming a regional center for dairy product exports through knowledge sharing, new collaborations, and international connections.
Can said, "Milk is one of the most important dynamics of our country's agricultural production power and rural development. We see this summit not only as a meeting point but also as a vision platform that will shape the future of our sector. We believe that the ideas that will emerge will give a strong momentum to our goal of making Turkey a regional center for milk and dairy product exports."
