What DOLUNAY LTD does

Dolunay Ltd. (legal name Dolunay Gıda Sanayi ve Ticaret Ltd Şti) is a privately held Turkish limited company founded in 1988 and headquartered in Şişli, Istanbul. It operates as an industrial representation and distribution company, holding Turkish market rights for 13 European and American manufacturers across the packaging and industrial sectors. Its represented portfolio covers corrugated, carton, and flexible packaging machinery (APR Solutions, BCM Transtech, Engico, Esatec, Gazella Atlantique, Para, Simec), printing and converting auxiliary equipment (Duo Technik, DYSS, InkSpec, Hunkeler System), industrial oil filtration (C.C. Jensen), and solvent recovery / air purification systems (Donau Carbon Technologies).

The company does not manufacture its own products. Its core offering is a curated multi-brand portfolio combined with local pre-sales engineering, project support, consulting, and training services delivered through its Istanbul office. The go-to-market is direct distribution: Dolunay acts as the official Turkish representative for each principal, sourcing and supplying capital equipment, consumables, and after-sales support to enterprise customers in industrial manufacturing and packaging. Revenue is generated through hardware sales, with no pricing or contract structure publicly disclosed. The business is single-geography (Turkey only) and operates with 1-10 employees according to available firmographic data.

The business model is a classic industrial agency/distributor: long-duration manufacturer relationships (the company cites 35+ years of industry experience), exclusive representation rights, and high-touch project selling. Distribution channels are direct enterprise sales only; marketing is limited to a company website showcasing the represented brand portfolio. No app, no API, no proprietary technology platform, and no AI/ML capability is evident. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, investors, or M&A activity.
