Cemar contributes to employment and SMEs

Cemar Travertine-Marble, which exports travertine stone from Manisa's Kula district to all over the world, continues to increase its domestic market figures day by day as well as exports, while also contributing to the growth and employment of SMEs in the region.

Kula district of Manisa, in addition to being a tourism attraction with its 3 thousand-year-old geopark, Fairy Chimneys and historical houses, has also started to come to the fore in the natural stone mining sector in recent years. Cemar Travertine-Mermer, operating in Manisa, one of the important cities in the mining sector of Turkey, which has 35 percent of the world's natural stone reserves, has the world's largest reserve of 270 million cubic meters in its quarry in Kula, which covers an area of 900 thousand square meters and goes to a depth of 300 meters. It has one of the travertine quarries. Travertines extracted from the quarry are cut and prepared in the desired sizes and exported to all over the world. Travertine stones, which are preferred for their ability to keep cool in summer and warm in winter and their natural appearance, have begun to increase rapidly in every area where human beings live. Stating that they export over 500 containers per season, Cemar Travertine-Marble General Manager Yusuf Yalçın said that they have a great employment potential in the region, but they have difficulties in finding workers. Stating that they work with more than 500 personnel at various levels, Yalçın said, "As a company, we work mainly on exports. We also made a breakthrough in the domestic market. We have a monthly export of between 300 and 500 containers. However, we also have the potential to exceed 500 in the season. As the number of containers and export figures increase, we provide great benefits to the region's SMEs, especially employment. In this sense, unfortunately, we have problems in staff employment, as in most sectors. "I invite our citizens in the region to work here," he said.
