Kozanlar Grup

What Kozanlar Grup does

Kozanlar Grup is a privately held Turkish industrial conglomerate founded in 1992 and headquartered in Sandıklı, Afyonkarahisar, operating four sub-branded companies across four industrial sectors: Kozanlar DGI (heat interface units / Daire Giriş İstasyonları for central heating, manufactured in-house since 1999), Kozanlar Jeotermal (geothermal heating project engineering and turnkey greenhouse construction), Kozanlar Tarım (greenhouse-based agricultural production of tomatoes and cucumbers from a 45,000 m² facility), and OGITA (plant-based organic fertilizer with ≥70% organic matter content). The group's technical foundation is built on in-house well-testing expertise (temperature, flow rate, dynamic level measurement of geothermal wells) used to size geothermal heating systems, in-house DGI HIU manufacturing, and turnkey integration of geothermal heating with soil-less agriculture — including a pioneering 32-bar high-pressure waste heat recovery application at Sarayköy TDİOSB in partnership with Zorlu Enerji.

Kozanlar's revenue model blends project-based EPC income (geothermal heating engineering, turnkey greenhouse installations, OSB heating system renovations) with hardware sales (DGI heat interface units, OGITA fertilizer) and recurring agricultural produce sales (fresh tomatoes and cucumbers delivered within 10 hours of harvest to Ankara, Istanbul, Bursa, and Izmir). Pricing is project-by-project and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct-to-enterprise with regional offices in Antalya, Ankara, and Istanbul, supplemented by international trade fair participation (Fruit Logistica Berlin, Milano HVAC+R, AGRITECH Kazakhstan, Build2 Perform London) and a newly established UK subsidiary (Kozanlar UK LTD, 2024) targeting the UK heat interface unit market by 2026.

Customer base spans large Turkish industrial zones and specialized agricultural OSBs (Sarayköy TDİOSB, Denizli Sarayköy TDİOSB), major Turkish holdings expanding into agriculture (Alarko Holding's Alsera, Alsim-Alsera Kazakhstan), and SMB operators (Bumeko partnership). The company holds İyi Tarım (Good Agriculture Practices) certification enabling exports to Russia and Gulf countries, was recognized as the 2nd-highest exporter in its sector at the İSİB 2020 export awards, and has been led by the Kozan family across its 30+ year history with no disclosed external funding or institutional investors.

Core offering

Kozanlar Grup is a Turkish industrial group operating across four sub-branded subsidiaries: Kozanlar Jeotermal (geothermal heating engineering and turnkey greenhouse construction), Kozanlar DGİ (manufacturing of heat interface units for central heating), Kozanlar Tarım (production of tomatoes and cucumbers from a 45,000 m² greenhouse), and OGİTA (plant-based organic fertilizer with ≥70% organic matter content). The group delivers integrated geothermal-heated agriculture projects, exports produce to Russia and Gulf countries, and is expanding internationally through Kozanlar UK LTD.

Product overview

Kozanlar Grup is not a single unified software platform but rather an industrial conglomerate of four sub-branded companies (Kozanlar Jeotermal, Kozanlar DGİ, Kozanlar Tarım, and OGİTA) operating in four different industries under a shared holding. The portfolio is structured around geothermal heating engineering (Jeotermal), manufacturing of heat interface units for central heating (DGİ), greenhouse-based agricultural production (Tarım), and plant-based organic fertilizer (OGİTA). These four sub-brands sit on top of shared manufacturing infrastructure (Kozanlar Isı Sistemleri) within the Sandıklı Organized Industrial Zone and feed turnkey greenhouse projects both domestically (e.g., Denizli Sarayköy) and internationally (e.g., Kazakhstan 400-decare greenhouse for Alarko Tarım). A new international sub-brand, Kozanlar UK LTD, was established in 2024 to export the DGİ heat interface unit product line into the United Kingdom. Together, the offering is best described as a portfolio of branded industrial product lines and engineering services rather than a single product with add-on modules.
