Counted a few minutes ago. There is no list to browse: you describe what you need, it gets searched, and at most two come back with the reason each one fits.
Turkey sits between Portugal and Asia on almost every axis. Istanbul and İzmir hold a very wide range of capability — jersey, knitwear, denim with its own laundries, outerwear — and minimums are usually lower than Portugal at a similar or better price.
Speed is the reason brands keep coming back. Fabric is largely domestic, so a factory can commit to a lead time without waiting on an import, and road freight to western Europe runs about a week. Sampling turnaround is often the fastest of anywhere in this list.
Two things to plan for. Turkey is outside the EU customs union for some categories and inside it for others, so check duty for your specific product rather than assuming. And the currency has moved sharply in recent years, which means a quote given in lira and a quote given in euros are different kinds of promise: ask which one you are being given.

Frequently asked questions
Is Turkey cheaper than Portugal?
Usually yes, at similar quality in the mid market, with lower minimums. The very top end of Portuguese knitwear is still hard to match.
How long does shipping take to the EU?
Roughly a week by road, against four to six weeks by sea from Asia.
Should I ask for a quote in euros or lira?
Euros, unless you are willing to carry the currency risk yourself. Ask explicitly, because a lira quote can drift between agreement and invoice.
