KTC BV Strengthens Global Partnerships at WorldFood Istanbul & WSPC 2025

The first week of September 2025 was a inspirational for KTC BV, as our colleague Dayrlane Mason represented the company at two of the industry’s most influential gatherings in Istanbul: WorldFood Istanbul (September 2–5) and the World Sesame & Peanut Conference (September 5–7).

What unfolded was not only a week of productive meetings and fresh opportunities, but also a chance to live out our core values — staying close to origin, fostering transparency, and building long-term partnerships rooted in trust.

WorldFood Istanbul: A Global Stage for Connection

WorldFood Istanbul has long been recognized as a meeting point for the international food and beverage industry, and this year was no exception.

Over three inspiring days, Dayrlane met with long-standing partners and welcomed new connections from across the world. The atmosphere was charged with innovation, collaboration, and curiosity — a clear reflection of the industry’s drive toward sustainable growth and stronger cooperation.

For KTC BV, being part of this platform meant more than simply attending a fair. It was about listening closely to the needs of partners, sharing our expertise, and creating genuine dialogue that shapes future opportunities. Each meeting added a new layer of understanding, reinforcing our commitment to connect people, products, and markets responsibly.

World Sesame & Peanut Conference: Insights at the Core

Following WorldFood, Dayrlane joined the World Sesame & Peanut Conference — a specialized gathering that provided essential insights just ahead of the harvest season.

The event offered more than market data. It was a place of exchange and collaboration, where professionals from across the sesame and peanut value chains — from growers and processors to exporters and buyers — came together to discuss quality, sustainability, and global demand.

For KTC BV, the discussions were especially impactful. Engaging directly with industry experts allowed us to deepen our knowledge, align with best practices, and strengthen our ability to offer trusted, high-quality products to clients worldwide.

A Week of Inspiration and Alignment

Both events — in their scale and depth — reminded us why we do what we do. They were inspiring, intuitive, and filled with meaningful encounters that will continue to influence our path forward.

At KTC BV, our mission has always been to stay close to origin, create transparent and reliable supply chains, and build partnerships that last. Dayrlane’s week in Istanbul embodied exactly that: listening, engaging, and co-creating opportunities that connect local producers to international markets in a way that benefits all.

Looking Ahead

We return from Istanbul with fresh ideas, stronger networks, and renewed energy to serve our partners with excellence. The connections made, the insights gained, and the values reinforced during these days are another step forward in our journey as a trusted international partner in sourcing and trade.

We thank all those who took the time to meet and engage with us during this exciting week.

📧 If we didn’t have the chance to connect in Istanbul, we’d be happy to continue the conversation.
