Ankara Ticaret Borsası

What Ankara Ticaret Borsası does

Ankara Ticaret Borsası (ATB) is a statutory commodity exchange established in 1923 and organized under Turkish Law No. 5174, operating under the regulatory umbrella of Türkiye Odalar ve Borsalar Birliği (TOBB). It operates four specialized branches across Ankara province: Kırmızı Et Borsası (Red Meat Exchange), Canlı Hayvanlar Borsası ve Kesimhane (Live Animals Exchange and Slaughterhouse), Ahiboz Hububat ve Bakliyat Borsası (Grain and Pulses Exchange), and Şereflikoçhisar Borsa Satış Salonu. Its core services include product registration (e-Tescil electronic system), official quotation listings, domestic goods certification (Yerli Malı Belgesi), export registration, and a Food Analysis Laboratory (Gıda Analiz Laboratuvarı) for quality testing. The exchange also publishes daily, monthly, and annual price bulletins and the Borsavizyon institutional magazine.

The business model is a regulated, member-based fee structure rather than a venture-backed commercial model. Revenue streams comprise annual membership dues (regulated under TOBB guidelines), transaction-based registration fees for commodity trades and export documentation, and fees from laboratory testing services. The customer base is horizontally distributed across agricultural commodity traders, livestock businesses, and food processing companies in Central Anatolia, with no single dominant account. Go-to-market is through membership registration, physical branch operations, and outreach via Borsavizyon and the Ankara Economic Summit.

Strategically, ATB has moved beyond pure exchange operations by co-founding Anadolu ÜPAK in 2024 with 31 trade exchanges to broker TÜRİB ELÜS electronic warehouse receipt trades, and by establishing two subsidiaries — ATB Tarım Ürünleri Lisanslı Depoculuk A.Ş. (licensed warehousing) and ATB İktisadi İşletmesi A.Ş. (commercial enterprise) — to extend into storage and ancillary commercial services. Governance is led by an Assembly (Meclis) chaired by İbrahim Öztürk and a Board of Directors chaired by Faik Yavuz, who also serves as TOBB Board Treasurer. Revenue is not publicly disclosed and the organization is not structured as an investable corporate entity.
