“Georgia is an important country for Turkey. She is a good neighbour and, moreover, a relative. With no visa requirement between two countries, 10 thousand people come from Turkey to Georgia every day. There are lots of Turkish investments, and a large number of investments are also under planning,” says Engin Arıkan, Consul of Batumi and adds, “Many major Turkish companies made large investments in Batumi. For example, Carmıklı built Sheraton Hotel and a residence. Adjara Region appreciates and cherishes them so much. They named a street after them.”
