Turkey is one of the big producers of glass and other stuff, Pete. (As an aside, most of the yarn produced for knitting etc is made in Turkey now, as are a lot of household textiles. We tend to think of China as being the big producer, which it is, but other countries like Turkey are not far behind.)
