Türk Halı Sektörünün Küresel Rekabet Gücü: Tüfte ve Dokuma Halıda Karşılaştırmalı Üstünlükler

Abstract

Kıt kaynaklara sahip ülkeler daha verimli oldukları endüstrilerde uzmanlaşmalıdırlar. Halı sektörü Türkiye'nin ihracatta üst sıralarda olduğu bir sektördür. Dokuma ve tüfte halı endüstrisi dünya halı ticaretinin çok büyük bir bölümüne sahiptir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye'nin dokuma ve tüfte halı endüstrilerindeki rekabet gücünü analiz etmek ve Çin, Belçika ve Hindistan ile kıyaslamaktır. Çalışma sonucunda Türkiye dokuma ve tüfte halı sektöründe karşılaştırmalı üstünlüğe sahip olmuştur. Belçika ve Hindistan'da her iki sektörde karşılaştırmalı üstünlüğe sahiptir. Ancak Çin'in karşılaştırmalı üstünlüğü her iki sektörde de bulunmamaktadır.
