• The problems that started with the pandemic process, unfortunately, continued throughout the first quarter, despite the decrease in the effects of the process. Logistics problems still persist due to access to materials, excessively rising commodity prices and rising costs. For reasons known to everyone, we feel these effects more in our country than in other  countries.

We currently serve around 200 customers located in 43 countries on 5 continents. We aim to increase our activities in North and South America, which we entered in 2019 but were interrupted by the Pandemic process.
