What Omsan Lojistik does

Omsan Lojistik Anonim Şirketi is a privately-held Turkish integrated logistics company founded in 1979 and wholly owned by OYAK (the Turkish Armed Forces Foundation). Headquartered in Maltepe, Istanbul, the company operates as a multi-modal 3PL provider with road (domestic and international), maritime (including owned vessels of 4,500 DWT and 30,000 DWT), air cargo, and rail transport services, plus bonded warehousing, customs brokerage, dangerous goods (ADR), automotive finished-vehicle logistics, and specialty services such as project cargo and home/office moving. The rail capability is anchored by Turkey's first private train operating license (2017) and 500+ owned/rented wagons; maritime capability is augmented by NVOCC container forwarding and a shipowner subsidiary (OMSAN Denizcilik).

Omsan generates revenue through multi-year, quote-based enterprise contracts with B2B customers across automotive, steel, cement, chemicals, energy, defense, retail, and FMCG verticals. It serves customers through seven Turkish regional directorates (Marmara, Akdeniz, İç Anadolu, Ege, Karadeniz, plus Bursa Operations Center and Tuzla Central Warehouse) and wholly-owned international subsidiaries in France, Romania, and Morocco. Technology platforms include a customer portal (Müşteri Portalı), live container tracking, and E-awb / E-freight systems; the firm's Moroccan subsidiary (MAROC OMSAN) was digitally integrated with Istanbul headquarters in 2026. Channel reach also includes IATA and WCA memberships for global air and sea forwarding.

The customer base features several long-dated enterprise relationships: a 50+ year partnership with Renault, multi-decade work with Doğuş Otomotiv (now expanded to Port Yarımca, Turkey's largest auto port), and an expanding defense business following a 2026 protocol with ARCA Savunma. Capital intensity is a defining characteristic — owned wagons, vessels, specialty vehicles, and 400,000 sqm of vehicle parking in Morocco — alongside a comprehensive ESG and compliance stack (EcoVadis, six ISO standards, AEO in Turkey and France, Green Logistics and Zero Waste certificates). Omsan commands 44% market share in Moroccan automotive finished-vehicle logistics, handling roughly 240,000 vehicles per year.
