Turkey's August exports rise 29.9 percent

Turkey's exports rose 29.89 percent year-on-year in August to $11.08 billion, the Turkish Exporters Assembly (TIM) said on Thursday.



In the first eight months of the year, exports rose 21.63 percent to $88.55 billion.

The exporters group posts its data almost a month before the official Statistics Institute releases its trade data. The two sets of data typically match.
