About Us |

Our company was founded with the partnership of five Turkish entrepreneurs and Moroccan firm Sicopa in Soke district of Aydin province in 1995. The main reason that Soke district was selected is that the agriculture for all kinds of vegetables can be made easily in the fertile lands of Buyuk Menderes delta. Besides, Soke is just 110 km far from Izmir, the biggest harbor of Turkey according to its business volume and imports.
Caper production was started in our factory which had 700 m2 production and 1,300 m2 storage areas in 1995. Sun Dried Tomatoes was added to our product portfolio in 1997 and Pepperoncini in 2001.
As our product portfolio and capacity increased, the construction of our new factory was started in 2000. We moved to our new factory which has production area of 10,500 m2 and storage area of 49,500 m2 in 2001.
