As we previously reported; Koyuncu Group has announced that it has started production in its new investment, a 100-decare geothermal heated modern technological greenhouse located in Sandikli district of Afyonkarahisar province.
A few months ago, the delegation, which also included the General Manager of Development Agencies, Baris Yeniceri, District Governor Kemal Duru, Mayor Huseyin Tosun and agency experts, made an examination of the potential thermal water resources in the Emir Spas region and its surroundings.
