ABC Lojistik

What ABC Lojistik does

ABC Lojistik (legal entity: ABC Uluslararası Transport Tic. San. A.Ş.) is a privately held Turkish joint-stock logistics company founded in 1992 and headquartered in Kayseri, Turkey. The company operates a fully integrated, multi-modal transport platform spanning road (FCL/LCL), sea, air, rail, and intermodal logistics, supplemented by specialized services such as project cargo (up to 85 tons via lowbeds), exhibition and event logistics, and sector-specific solutions for automotive, industrial/trade, retail/food, healthcare/pharma, textile, construction, and technology verticals. Supporting services include logistics warehousing (Kayseri HQ, Germany ULM depot, Italy Trieste), customs brokerage (via group company BLUEGATE), insurance (via group company All-Risks), intermodal coordination and sea freight (via group company ABEX), and groupage (LTL) services from Turkey to all of Europe.

The company is built on a capital-intensive owned fleet of 630 EURO 5/6-compliant tractors, 920 trailers, and 5 lowbeds, supporting 10,000+ shipments transporting €1.5B in cargo value annually and serving 64 countries. Its technology layer consists of a GPS/GPRS/SMS-based vehicle tracking system with 24/7 web and mobile (iOS/Android) monitoring, an e-logistics customer portal (portal.abclojistik.com), and an online freight quotation form — together enabling real-time shipment visibility. Operational credentials include AEO (Authorized Economic Operator) status (the 463rd company in Turkey to obtain it), ISO 9001:2015, ISO 10002:2018, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO 500 listing, a 478th ranking in Turkey's TİM Top 1000 Exporters (2023), and a Zero Waste Certificate with a Green Logistics Certificate application in progress.

Revenue generation is transaction-based, with per-shipment freight quotations calculated on cargo type, weight, volume, origin-destination, transport mode, and service level. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales through direct branch teams (Kayseri HQ, Istanbul, Ankara, Mersin, Germany Langenau, Italy Trieste) with a digital self-service channel for mid-market and partial-shipment customers. Customer-facing channels span LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, X/Twitter, an e-newsletter, trade fair participation, and Kariyer.net/LinkedIn recruitment. ABC Lojistik operates with 700+ personnel and is currently executing a 2021–2026 restructuring and transformation program, having recently opened a Kayseri Teknopark branch (April 2025) for R&D and digital transformation and an Ankara branch (July 2025), with planned 2026 port-area infrastructure of 70,000+ m² near Mersin and Pendik. The company is chaired by Ergun Bilen (Yönetim Kurulu Başkanı), and ownership structure is private with no disclosed institutional investors or parent entity — a data gap for prospective investors.
