Consumers can purchase SME products from dedicated stands placed within the respective retail outlets.

It should be noted that the Small and Medium Business Development Agency (KOBİA) facilitates the promotion and sale of products manufactured by micro and small entrepreneurs through state support. For this purpose, the Agency allocates separate stands within major retail chains to showcase these products. This support mechanism also contributes to the promotion of new brands and local products created by SMEs.

Micro and small business entities may benefit from the support mechanism for accessing retail networks. Food-producing micro and small entrepreneurs may submit their applications to the Agency electronically. At present, 8 sales points are operating within retail chains to facilitate the sale of SME products.
