Nergiz Kadooğlu Çifçi, Deputy Leader of the Association of Fuel Main Distribution Companies (ADER), brought the department's problems and analysis proposals to the language at the Power Hill held in Gaziantep.

Gaziantep Chamber of Commerce, Metropolitan Municipality and Gaziantep Fuel Dealers Association (GABDER) held within the scope of the Power Peak, ⁇ Overview of the Fuel Department ⁇ Speaking at the panel with bets ADER Deputy Leader Nergiz Kadooğlu Çifçi, stating that they are doing a troublesome job, ⁇ Fuel business is a difficult segment. We are trying to supply uninterrupted fuel to our country from all over the world. In addition, we are a very valuable department that tries to provide the best service and the most beautiful retailing 24/7 at our stations. But unfortunately, we are doing this job with very low profitability and in an environment where the competition is so heated.

Drawing attention to the problems of the fuel sector, ADER Deputy Leader Nergiz Kadooğlu Çifçi said that public and private branch cooperation is very valuable in the analysis of issues. Emphasizing that they are always on the side of common sense, Kadooğlu Çifçi said, ⁇ We always think that public, non-governmental organizations and private sector should support each other by meeting on the common ground. The decision of our regulators is invaluable. We always argue that the decisions taken should be analyzed. In each decision, the effect should be analyzed so that when this work is reflected to the players of the department, the mishaps are minimized.

⁇ Delay in ship supply ⁇

Reminding that they had some problems that negatively affected the department at the beginning of 2023, Kadooğlu Çifçi said that the problem was solved with the synergy created with the common mind. Kadooğlu Çifçi, who said that there have been delays related to ship supply in fuel shipment in recent periods, ⁇ We are facing some problems even though we try not to make our dealers feel this problem we are experiencing and to provide the most adequate service. While we are experiencing these problems, we also ask for the following basis, as if, in such a violent period, a reinforcement can be provided for national stock keeping in the past? Because today we are going through a thoughtful period as a department. Another issue we have as a branch is our expenses, which are our bleeding wounds. The costs of both distribution companies and our dealers are increasing every day. We're experiencing a brain drain in the department. Unfortunately, we are not able to attract well-educated young people to the department and we lose the experienced managers in the sector to the other departments. When this is the case, we can neither rejoice in the 21 percent growth in fuel oil nor can we develop work related to the stable going motorine. We have become a branch that has been overwhelmed and worn out with all the operation works.

⁇ National vehicle recognition system starts a new process for us ⁇

Kadooğlu Nergiz, who introduced what he sees as an application that will affect the branch of the National Vehicle Recognition System, stated that the public, NGOs and private sector do not meet at a common point in this bet, and our knowledge about the ⁇ National Vehicle Recognition System is still very incomplete and our belief in the possibility of this work is very low. We see a high probability that the cost increases will be reflected in the price of the latest consumer. In the last 15 years, fuel sales have increased by 50 percent and diesel and LPG by 125 percent. Moreover, despite the support of alternative fuels, this increase was achieved. These demand increases were achieved as a result of the studies carried out with the applied programs and branch resources. On top of all this effort, the National Vehicle Recognition System is starting a new process for us. We say it is starting, but now we have not witnessed its installation at a station, we do not know if there is any test for LPG. I mean, we don't exactly have an opinion. With this application, an additional cost of $20,000 per station is mentioned. We are talking about an investment of 2 thousand, 2 thousand 300 liras per vehicle. We are talking about the cost of approximately 10 billion TL for 12,500 stations and 16 billion TL for 8 million commercial vehicles. In addition, in the new year, these costs will increase at the rate of inflation. We think that it is not fair that this will increase at the annual inflation rate within three months after the announced prices. We're not so sure our department can handle this. To be honest, whoever does this job, whenever it is done, it is a huge investment. Meat does not leave the nail. We are a distribution company and dealers as a whole. If there is a cost added to which side, the other side will be affected. For this reason, we attach great importance to the fact that all stakeholders in the department act with a common mind for this kind of application, and we make the necessary effort to be positive for the benefit of our segment.

Kadooğlu Çifçi, who stated that they always support the effort with the unregistered, drew attention to the problems caused by the increase in the credit card usage rates in the sector and the burdens experienced with transportation costs, and gave information about ADER ⁇ 's analysis proposals.

In the panel moderated by GABDER President Mehmet Ergün Demir ⁇ in, Energy Market Regulatory Authority Deputy Leader Yılmaz Tamer, TOBB Turkey Petroleum and Petroleum Products Industry Assembly President Ahmet Erdem, Petroleum Works Employer Union President İmran Okumuş and Turkish Fuel Dealers Oil and Gas Companies Employer Union President Murat Bilgin also brought their opinions and proposals about the issues related to the sector to the language. ⁇ GAZİANTEP
