Dalam Angka
The Deposit Return System (DOA), implemented in Türkiye as of 1 July, was introduced for recycling purposes. However, it was discovered that some packaged water companies reflected the 1.5 lira Recovery Participation Fee collected from the producer onto the consumer as a price hike.
The Ministry of Trade announced that administrative fines would be imposed on companies if these unjust increases in water prices were not withdrawn. Deputy Minister Mahmut Gürcan, who met with industry representatives, clearly stated that opportunism would not be allowed.
While 1 lira of the collected 1.5 lira fee is paid to the citizen who returns the bottle, the remaining 50 kuruş is planned to cover the system cost. On the other hand, due to the inadequacy and malfunctioning of the 1,400 deposit return machines installed across Türkiye, increasing the number of return points in many districts, including Isparta, is on the agenda.
