Türkiye builds largest porcelain factory in Egypt

Turkish company Kar’s Bonna Porcelain has decided to launch a $100 million production facility in the Burg Al Arab region of Alexandria in Egypt, with the goal of starting operations as soon as possible, Turkish Ambassador to Cairo Salih Mutlu Sen announced on the platform X on Tuesday.

Kar Porselen, a Turkish porcelain manufacturer, began as a small ceramics workshop in 1983. In 2014, the company launched Bonna, which it describes as Türkiye’s first Horeca-focused brand, combining traditional craftsmanship with a more modern production approach.

With an annual production capacity of 40 million pieces, Bonna operates across extensive facilities, including a LEED-certified logistics center in Bilecik-Pazaryeri.
