İstanbul Ticaret Gazetesi

What İstanbul Ticaret Gazetesi does

İstanbul Ticaret Gazetesi is a Turkish-language digital economic and business news publication operated under the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce (İstanbul Ticaret Odası, İTO), a quasi-governmental business organization established in 1882. The masthead itself dates to 1885, positioning it as one of the longest continuously operating business publications in Turkey, now distributed primarily through digital channels rather than print. Its editorial scope covers the Turkish economy, finance, global markets, sectoral/industrial developments, export and trade news, technology, and world affairs, with the site prominently featuring live tickers for BIST 100, major currencies, gold/silver, Bitcoin, and Brent crude — turning the homepage into a hybrid news-and-market-data product.

The product surface spans four channels: the E-Gazete (digital newspaper) at istanbulticaretgazetesi.com, the EkoTV video news platform, the Bülten email newsletter, and native mobile applications on iOS (App Store), Android (Google Play), and Huawei AppGallery. The publication operates with an editorial team of approximately 5 employees under General Publishing Director Mete Dirice, and adheres to stated publishing principles of accuracy, impartiality, and editorial independence from commercial sponsorships.

The business model is anchored to its parent İTO rather than to independent commercial monetization. Content is free to access with an optional member login, pricing is not publicly disclosed, no advertising rate cards or subscription tiers are evidenced, and no external funding rounds are on record. Distribution leverages the İTO institutional network and affiliated organizations (SoftİTO, BTM, İTOTAM) plus cross-OS mobile reach. Customer segments are horizontal and consumer-facing — Turkish business professionals, investors, entrepreneurs, and the general public interested in economic developments — rather than enterprise B2B contracts, which means the publication's financial sustainability depends on continued İTO institutional support rather than market-rate revenue capture.
