Tekop Refrigeration

What Tekop Refrigeration does

Tekop Refrigeration is a Turkish industrial refrigeration equipment manufacturer founded in 2000 and headquartered in Istanbul, operating as a subsidiary of Tekop Group. The company designs, manufactures, installs, and services modular cold rooms for food storage, hospitality, retail, pharmaceutical, and industrial kitchen applications. Its product portfolio centers on cold rooms constructed from high-density (42 kg/m³) polyurethane and PIR sandwich panels with cam-lock assembly, complemented by split, industrial, central, blast freezer, and monoblock refrigeration systems; multiple evaporator variants; hinged, sliding, sectional, and controlled-atmosphere doors; and accessories including humidifiers, ethylene absorbers, LED lighting, and shelving.

The company is a systems integrator, combining its own panels and enclosures with best-of-breed third-party components — Bitzer, Copeland, Dorin, Frascold, and Tecumseh compressors; Danfoss, Siemens, Schneider Electric, and Eliwell controls; ebmpapst fans; and Chemours refrigerants. Hardware sales and turnkey project services constitute the two primary revenue streams, priced via custom quotes rather than list pricing. Distribution runs through enterprise field sales coordinated from offices in Istanbul, Sivas (factory), and Izmir (Turkey); London (UK); Warrenton, Virginia (USA); and Greater Accra (Ghana), with the company claiming delivery to more than 50 countries.

Customer concentration skews to hospitality and food-and-beverage, with reference customers including Hilton, Sheraton, Waldorf Astoria Maldives, Starbucks, McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Gloria Jeans, Algida, Blue Bunny, German Doner Kebab, and several Maldivian luxury resorts. The company carries ISO, TSE, TSE-HYB, TSEK, CE, and Halal certifications and operates a quote-driven, multilingual web presence in English, Turkish, and US English. The business is privately held with no disclosed external funding.
