Can you tell us about the vision and mission of Berfa Group since its establishment?
According to the expectations and demands of our customers, it is our primary principle to always ensure customer satisfaction with the highest performance. Every element that will provide maximum satisfaction for each of our customers individually determines our vision and mission.

Do you have a shortage of raw materials in the production process?
At the end of the Covid-19 process, supply problems are experienced in some raw materials at certain intervals. Especially in these periods when Chinese freight rates are on the rise, the Turkish export market, receiving high demand, faces problems in terms of production capacities, logistics and raw materials.
Can we learn about your export range and your foreign market targets in the new year?
Berfa Group and Fanuva aim to bring innovations to the sector globally in 2022. We continue our work and negotiations with many mattress brands, especially in the mattress sector, known in the world.

Besides, we have intensive work in progress with Africa, South America, Russia, India and the Middle East Markets.
Finally, do you have anything to add?
Quality, timely supply and capacity are essential for sustainable trade. If planned and correct steps are taken in this process, Turkey’s potential will increase even more and it will reach its goals more quickly.
