What KURUL GROUP DIŞ TİCARET A.Ş does

Kurul Group Dış Ticaret A.Ş is a privately held Turkish conglomerate founded in 1991 and headquartered in Çukurova, Adana. The company operates three distinct business lines: foreign trade, agriculture, and construction. In foreign trade, Kurul Group exports construction materials, textiles, food, grain, and furniture to Middle East and African markets and conducts transit trade transactions by sourcing products from various countries on customer request. In agriculture, the company operates 100,000 square meters of banana greenhouses for domestic Turkish production, framed as an import-substitution initiative. In construction, Kurul Group has delivered residential housing projects in Adana (the Mehmet Akif Ersoy Houses) and is executing international commercial developments including the Libya Shopping Mall project.

The company's go-to-market is direct sales across all three segments, with no channel intermediaries, no proprietary technology platform, no API, no AI/ML capabilities, and no digital product surface beyond a multi-language marketing website (Turkish, English, Arabic). Revenue is not disclosed publicly, no parent company, institutional investor, or private equity backing is identified, and headcount is reported at only 7 employees. Customer relationships in export are direct B2B with trading partners in Middle East and African countries; construction is sold to individual and commercial buyers; bananas are sold domestically to the Turkish agricultural market. The company's competitive positioning rests on what it describes as "years of accumulated experience and knowledge" rather than on any identifiable technological, data, or scale advantage.

Direct peers

• Tareks Foreign Trade: Turkish trading company focused on export of consumer goods, textiles, and food products to MENA markets. Directly comparable for the cross-border wholesale/trading segment of Kurul Group's foreign trade business.
• Ekizler Holding: Adana-rooted Turkish group active in agricultural production, real estate, and contracting with international project activity. Closely comparable as a multi-generational Adana-based diversified SME operating across agriculture, real estate, and trade/construction.
• Ant Yapı: Turkish construction contractor with an extensive international project portfolio including commercial developments (shopping malls, hotels, residential) across the Middle East, North Africa, and CIS. Directly comparable for its Turkish-origin contracting activity in Libya and similar MENA geographies.
• Yayla Agro: Turkish agricultural producer and exporter specializing in pulses, grains, and processed foods sold internationally. Comparable for its overlap with Kurul Group's food/grain export activities serving Middle East and African markets.

Broad incumbents

• Limak Holding: Major Turkish conglomerate with significant international construction, infrastructure, and food/agriculture operations, including projects in Africa and the Middle East. Comparable for its diversified construction-plus-trade-plus-agriculture profile, though at far larger scale.
• Sanko Holding: Large Adana-based Turkish conglomerate operating across textiles, construction, and agriculture. Relevant as a diversified Anatolian holding company that combined trade-related manufacturing with real estate development, much broader than Kurul Group but operating in the same regional and sectoral footprint.
• MNG Holding: Turkish holding with operations spanning construction, logistics, energy, and trade. Comparable as a diversified Turkish group with both domestic real estate and international project activities, though again at materially larger scale than Kurul Group.

Regional players

• Anamurlu Muz Üreticileri (Anamur banana growers cluster): The Anamur/Mersin region hosts Turkey's established banana-producing cooperatives and greenhouse operators. Kurul Group's Çukurova banana investment is geographically adjacent and competes for the same domestic import-substitution opportunity, making these regional producers the most directly comparable agricultural peers.
