This study, aimed to determine the competitive position of the forest products industry in Turkey between 2001 and 2017 using the revealed comparative advantage approach. One of the three product sectors of the forest products industry (wood and articles of wood, wood charcoal;sector 21) was examined at the level of product subgroups. This sector was found to be far from the desired position in terms of competition. When the sector was analysed by sub-group, especially the product subgroups 4411, 4413 and 4415 had a competitive position. Moreover, it was found that the trend in Turkey's imports of wood and wooden articles was not high. However, imports under specified product groups were above the general level of imports in Turkey.
