We ➝ From Founder and Honorary Chairman of Şimşek Group

For me, the journey of life began by touching the soil and believing in the abundance of production. This journey, which started with an entrepreneurial spirit and extended from farming to production, and from there to the fields of manufacturing and distribution, has over time become not only a story of commercial growth, but also a reflection of devotion to labor, family, and our homeland. When I look at where Şimşek Group stands today, I see much more than the growth of a business; I see a structure with strong roots, firm willpower, and a confident belief in the future.

​

The greatest strength of this structure is the spirit it carries as a family company. As a family that believes in the same values, stands shoulder to shoulder, knows how to support one another in difficult times and grow together in good times, we have reached where we are today. The fact that my children have embraced this journey, not merely by continuing the business but by showing the determination to develop it and carry it into new fields, is a particular source of pride for me. The trust, sincerity, and sense of responsibility that our family bonds bring to the way we do business have shaped the fundamental character of Şimşek Group.

​

Of course, this success is not only the achievement of our family; it is also the work of our colleagues, managers, and teams who have walked with us throughout the years. In every structure we have built, we have taken care to place people at the center and to see our employees not merely as part of the workforce, but as valuable stakeholders in this great journey. The loyalty, commitment, and institutional strength that Şimşek Group possesses today are the natural result of our employees’ efforts, dedication, and the mutual trust we have established. We sincerely believe that an approach which values its employees builds long-lasting and solid institutions.

​

From past to present, in every step we have taken across agriculture, bakery products manufacturing, energy distribution, logistics, and various commercial fields, we have tried to understand the changing needs of our country and establish structures that respond to them. Today, I also believe that institutions growing with family values become even stronger through a professional management approach. For this reason, I attach great importance to being a structure that develops together with strong professionals, becomes institutionalized, and prepares itself for the future. I have full confidence that Şimşek Group will continue on its path in the coming period by increasing not only its own growth, but also its contribution to employment, trade, and the development of our country.
