Erikli

What Erikli does

Erikli (legal name: Erikli Su ve Meşrubat Sanayi Ticaret A.Ş.) is a Turkish natural spring water brand, founded in 1952 and headquartered in Istanbul (Maslak, Sarıyer). The company is a privately held subsidiary of Nestlé Waters and operates as the 8th largest brand within the Nestlé Waters global portfolio. Its core product is natural spring water sourced from a single protected source inside Uludağ National Park at +2,000 meters altitude in Bursa, bottled without human contact via fully automated machinery and supported by a full certification stack (TSE, TS 266, ISO 9001:2015, FSSC 22000, ISO 14001:2015, ISO 45001:2018, ISO 22000:2005, OHSAS 18001).

Erikli's product portfolio spans about 12 SKUs across three packaging formats: PET bottles (0.33L, 0.5L, 1L, 1.5L, 5L, 10L), glass bottles (0.33L, 0.75L), and carboys (15L glass and 19L PET damacana), plus a Premium sub-brand line (0.33L and 0.75L PET) positioned for the HoReCa segment. The Kestel bottling facility in Bursa — reportedly the largest in Nestlé Waters globally at the equivalent of 19 football fields under a single roof — is supported by a second İnegöl facility. Annual production supports over 1 billion bottles and 16 million glasses consumed per day.

The business model is a hybrid of retail and subscription. The Home & Office Delivery (HOD) subscription service serves 500,000+ unique subscribers with 19L damacana delivered via a proprietary iOS/Android mobile app and a customer contact center (444 0 222); first-time subscribers must onboard via the contact center. New-subscriber promotional campaigns (e.g., 120 TL per 19L unit for the first 20 units) provide pay-as-you-go acquisition pricing alongside a 200 TL damacana deposit. Separately, Erikli distributes through independent water dealers and service points across all 81 Turkish provinces plus retail stores, supermarkets, and kiosks. Customer segments are mass-market households and offices (primary), HoReCa (cafés, restaurants, hotels — secondary), supported by the TFF-licensed Erikli Kazananlar Kulübü loyalty program. The company employs 251–500 people and reports no consolidated revenue figure publicly.
