WE Soda is better connected than ever! 🛤️   Important progress is being made in Ankara’s rail infrastructure, bringing meaningful benefits to WE Soda’s logistics operations.   The Turkish Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure has announced the extension of the Başkentray suburban rail line from Sincan to Yenikent, along with a dedicated 4 km rail spur that will connect Ankara directly to our Kazan site.   For WE Soda, this development is not just an infrastructure improvement—it’s a step that supports our efforts to make our supply chain more efficient and sustainable. The new rail link will help ensure WE Soda is better connected and will contribute to a more reliable, lower‑carbon and more flexible logistics network for future. 🚆   https://lnkd.in/eZtczS97 #WESoda #Logistics #SupplyChain #Sustainability #RailTransport #Infrastructure #GreenLogistics
