“We at Elginkan Community are entrusted with an important legacy.

And we always work toward these principles,” said Gaye Akçen, Elginkan Foundation Board of Directors Chair, and the President of Elginkan Community Executive Board. “Looking at 2015, this has been a year when we continued to grow. We plan to close the year with 15 per cent growth, and TL2 billion in revenues. We also aim to expand in the Asia-Pacific region, our newest market. We are investing in capacity, production facility, and product diversity for sustainable growth.”

ABOUT ELGİNKAN FOUNDATION

The Elginkan family, founders of the Elginkan Community, hail from Manisa. The family, bearing the surname Elginkan, is maternally tied with the Sarukhanids through their mother Ümmehan Elginkan, while the family’s paternal roots go back to Ruse, a town close to Shumen, within the borders of present-day Bulgaria, where their father Ahmet Elginkan was born, and the family was known as 'Necipzade of Ruse'. In 1954, the mother Ümmehan Elginkan, with her sons Hüseyin Ekrem Elginkan and Hüseyin Cahit Elginkan decided to institute the Elginkan Foundation, which was finally materialized in 1985 after going through numerous stages. Although instituting foundations and/or being connected to foundations is not a very common practice among established enterprises in Turkey, managing the Community through a Foundation is regarded as an extraordinary practice. The Foundation aims to ensure that the Elginkan Community lives and serves the country eternally.
