What MARYAPI does
Mar Yapı Turizm İnşaat San. Ve Tic. A.Ş. (operating as MARYAPI / Mar Yapı) is a privately held Turkish luxury real-estate developer headquartered in Istanbul's Bağcılar district with 250+ employees and 45,000,000 TL of paid-up capital. The firm was co-founded by Chairman Münir Özkök — who also founded Midas (Turkey's leading gold-chain producer) in 1983 and co-founded renewable-energy firm Maraş Enerji in 1997 — and Vice Chairman Yusef Arslan, who brought 13 years of construction experience in Israel and separately runs Y&Y Construction and Development in Cyprus and MAST LTD. Mar Yapı develops residential, hospitality, and mixed-use projects under a unified "G" brand portfolio spanning Istanbul, Bodrum, and Izmir.
The company has assembled a portfolio of branded real-estate products rather than building a proprietary technology platform. Completed and ongoing projects include G-Residences Ulus and Gayrettepe, G Tower (serviced under Divan Residence), G Yoo Inspired by Starck, G-Rotana (2013 MIPIM AR Future Projects Award winner), Wanda Vista Istanbul, G-Beyond, G-Hub (a 182,000 m² mixed-use complex with a 600-bed Biruni University Hospital), Evka Bornova, G-Town Bodrum, G-Taksim, G-Durusu, and G-Kızılburun. Architectural work is concentrated with Şerbetçi Architects, which has designed multiple major projects including Evka Bornova and G-Hub. There is no proprietary software, AI/ML capability, API, or digital product surface disclosed; the only technology footprint is standard digital marketing tooling (Google Analytics, Google Ads, Dynamic Remarketing, Facebook Custom Audience) supporting project-level microsites.
Mar Yapı monetizes through four streams: one-time sale of luxury residential units (apartments, villas, hotel-residences), recurring revenue from furnished short- and long-term rentals at G Tower managed by Divan Residence, recurring revenue from the guaranteed-income investment product at G-Rotana under Rotana Group operations, and one-time sale of commercial and mixed-use components (retail shops, offices, medical residences). Pricing is opaque and handled via direct sales offices and project-specific websites targeting high-net-worth individuals, institutional buyers, and international investors. The GTM is sales-led and enterprise-field-sales hybrid: branded luxury marketing for HNW buyers plus enterprise engagement with hotel operators, hospital operators, and commercial tenants for mixed-use projects.
