Turkey

Alshaya began its operations in Turkey in 2002. The country operates as its own region within Alshaya. Turkey is a connection point between Europe and Asia with an unusual wealth of history and a variety of cultures. It is described as "the land of opposites". Its mountains and high plateaux, the Sea of Marmara with the channels of the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus, have made this land, from time immemorial, a border between the orient and the occident.

Stretching out on two continents, Turkey occupies an area of 781,000 square meters. Accessibility to newly emerging markets in the Middle East and Central Asia creates unique business opportunities, and the presence of more than 4,000 foreign businesses including 104 of the Fortune Top 5,000 companies, confirms Turkey as a prime investment location.

With a population of 72 million and an increasing consumer purchasing power, Turkey is among the world's top 20 economies, with an average GDP per capita income of $4,187. Turkey offers a huge and dynamic domestic market to potential investors.
