Short answer
Türkiye sits between Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and North Africa, and has mattress factories built for export. When you compare suppliers, check capacity, in-house production, certificates, roll-pack and export experience. BRN Sleep Products in the Kayseri Free Zone exports to more than 60 countries and can produce up to 15,000 mattresses a day.
Many retailers, furniture chains and e-commerce brands in Europe, the Middle East and the United States look at Türkiye when they plan a new mattress programme or a second source. This guide explains what to look for and which questions to ask, using BRN Sleep Products as a worked example.
Why buyers look at Türkiye
Türkiye sits between Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia and North Africa. For buyers in these regions that means shorter supply routes than sourcing from further east, and access to manufacturers that already run export programmes, country-specific sizes and export documentation as daily work.
What separates one manufacturer from another
- Scale: the production area and daily output, and how much of it is free for your programme.
- Integration: which steps are made in-house and which are bought in.
- Certificates: independent certificates with numbers you can look up.
- Roll-pack: whether the factory can compress and roll your construction for e-commerce and long-distance freight.
- Export desk: labelling, packaging, container planning and documents handled by the factory.
- Development: a clear route from brief to approved sample to volume production.
