Popis: In the research, the history of the paper industry in Turkey was examined and its current situation was revealed with updated data. Time series analysis, which is suitable for the scope of the research, was preferred as the method of the article. In the study, firstly, paper enterprises and production initiatives in the Ottoman Empire are explained. In the next step, the efforts to establish and develop the paper industry in order to reduce the foreign dependency of the Young Republic of Turkey were emphasized. The modern paper industry in Turkey was established in Izmit in 1934. Izmit Paper Mills, which was affiliated with Sümerbank, was affiliated with the Ministry of Industry and was named General Directorate of Turkish Pulp and Paper Mills Enterprise (SEKA). In the research, paper mills in Turkey were examined in three periods: establishment (1934-1961), expansion to regions (1970-1984), privatization and today. In addition, the numerical values in paper production of Germany and Turkey, which rank first in paper production in Europe, were compared. As a result, it has been revealed that the paper industry in Turkey has become a sector that has a foreign trade deficit every year, cellulose production is insufficient and the natural resource potential cannot be mobilized. In this context, some suggestions evaluated from a geographical perspective are presented.
