Why the Türkiye-Azerbaijan Corridor?
Trade volume between Türkiye and Azerbaijan continues to grow each year, driven by the strategic partnership between the two nations and the maturation of the Middle Corridor initiatives. Baku is one of the most critical gateways to Central Asia and Chinese markets via the Caspian — offering direct access for Türkiye-based exporters.
This corridor offers a shorter, safer and more predictable alternative to traditional northern routes. Turkish firms have rapidly expanded their presence in the Azerbaijani market in retail, automotive, chemicals and food sectors.
