“I thank our esteemed President. We came and toured, thank you for your efforts, and I thank your entire team. We all enjoyed it very much. It was a construction project that has been ongoing for three years, and everyone was curious. It truly is a venue befitting Kayseri. It will house Kayseri's leading food and beverage companies, particularly those that have become renowned throughout Turkey, and we are confident that it will provide excellent services to all our people. There are around 70 shops and food and beverage outlets. These places also offer local products, produce, and also high-quality products produced in our districts, each with its own unique characteristics. A beautiful venue has been built where citizens can access all of Kayseri's beautiful products, from Yahyalı's apples to Pınarbaşı's potatoes, from Circassian cheese to Erkilet's cat legs. I hope it works well. I think it would be wonderful if the Melikgazi Municipality had a hand in it. My friends here said the same thing. I wish it good luck and prosperity for Kayseri. We will be opening around New Year's, and I believe there will be a great crowd after we open. We will all open together on that day. Good luck and prosperity in advance.
