Automotive Exports August 2023

We preferred to produce and export with
our manufacturer identity. We continue
to carry on the beginning we made many
years ago. With our 45 years of experience,
we have gone through many processes
and gained a lot of experience. It gives us
pleasure and pleasure to produce with the
constantly changing and renewed brands
and models of the sector, which is open to
development, and to follow the trends in
the world. As long as we work and produce,
we are happy and enjoyable.
Can you give information about the
product variety and features?
We have more than 500 products. These
products include reservoir & water tank,
bumper plastic, gear knob, dipstick,
glove box cover, rear fog lights, door
inner and outer opening handle, engine
top cover, signal lamps, reflectors, lock
buttons, ceiling lamp etc. We have many
products such as ..... While determining
the projection of our products, we decide
by looking at the needs of both the
domestic and foreign markets, their sales
volumes and the competitive situation.
The demands of our products are high due
to their high quality, competitive prices,
continuous production and high customer
satisfaction. We have deep-rooted
communication and business partnerships
with our domestic and international
customers. It is one of our top priorities to
constantly send goods, that is, not to leave
our customers without products and to
keep in touch with them. We are increasing
our portfolio on both volume and product
basis day by day and we are investing in the
coming days.
What can you say about your
production facility and R&D studies?
Our production and administrative
buildings are in the same place. Of course,
we see a lot of benefits from this. We
affect everything faster and faster, and
production is a very lively and dynamic
structure with continuity. Producing a
product from raw materials is both a very
enjoyable and exciting point. We have been
in production since our childhood.
We have been living the process from raw
material to finished product for 44 years,
and we are proud of it again with each
production. We see the benefit of our
experience in this direction. I’ve been with
the company our father founded for the
last 30 years and it’s great to see it grow.
Which countries do you export to,
which ones do you want to include
in your export network?
We are currently exporting to many
countries in these continents and regions,
including Europe, South America, North
America, Russia, the Balkans, and North
Africa. Our aim is to introduce our own
products to countries that we have not
yet reached and have not been able to
introduce our products to. In this direction,
our door is open to all wholesalers and
distributors. Meeting and working with
new customers is one of our biggest sales
goals. All our domestic and international
customers are very valuable and valuable
to us. We care about your ideas and
thoughts. We receive and evaluate your
feedback.
What are the fairs you have
attended or are planning to attend
in Turkey and abroad?
Every year we work on fairs, trips abroad
and marketing. There were 4 fairs we
targeted for 2023. We participated in
some of them and we will attend some of
them until the end of the year. Fairs we
will attend in 2023 are Equip Auto Algeria,
Automecahnica Birmingham, Expopartes
Colombia and Auto Tech Cairo.
Can you evaluate your location in
terms of conditions such as raw
materials and distribution?
You know, Istanbul is the center of trade.
We do not have any problems in terms of
both production and logistics. The worker
problem can occur in our country from
time to time, as it is in the whole country.
There are no problems with finding
suppliers or shipping raw materials or
ports.

Can you comment on the positive
and negative aspects of the
automotive spare parts industry in
terms of the Turkish market?
As I said, the industry is a very dynamic and
vibrant industry. The negative aspects of
the sector are the fact that raw materials
and semi-finished goods are purchased
in foreign currency, working without
stock, prices change every day, worker
problems and lack of technical personnel.
The positive aspects are the continuation
of the momentum of Turkey’s exit. Giving
importance to the automotive sector and
having government contributions.
