As Tunçlar Kuruyemiş, we have been pioneering the nut industry since 1979, striving to be a distinguished company with our steadfast commitment to quality and customer-oriented solutions. Today, we hold a dominant position in the sector, catering to diverse demands in both national and international markets through nut production, import, and export.

In the early 2000s, after moving to a state-of-the-art production facility, we firmly established our presence in the industry with the birth of our brand "ÇİTLEKÇİ." In 2011, we contributed significantly to the food sector by establishing one of Turkey's few high-tech sunflower seed production facilities.

Embracing technological advancements, we ventured into the retail sector, quickly becoming a preferred brand with our ÇİTLEKÇİ stores and customer-focused approach. Furthermore, engaging in micro-export, we export to more than 35 countries, contributing to our country's economy and reputation.

During the pandemic, we responded to changing dietary habits by making healthy and natural nuts more accessible through rapid investments. Expanding our ÇİTLEKÇİ store count to 20 within just 2 years, we continue to offer a hygienic and modern shopping experience.

At the forefront of the sector's modernization principles, our growing brand will continue to make a name for itself with ambitious export initiatives in the near future.

A New Era at ÇİTLEKÇİ: Rising in E-Commerce!

We are confidently moving towards becoming Turkey's largest e-commerce platform in the nut industry. To achieve this goal, we are revamping our e-commerce infrastructure to provide customers with the best possible experience.

Additionally, we are preparing to play an active role in expanding marketplaces, aiming to reach wider audiences and increase brand recognition. Driven by our corporate identity, we are determined to lead the digital transformation in the food sector, staying innovative and customer oriented.

Why Don't We Use the Franchising System?

When you visit a ÇİTLEKÇİ store, you enter a world full of natural flavors. However, the ÇİTLEKÇİ brand grows through a unique business model. We operate solely with branches established and managed by our holding, not relying on a franchising system.

As a company with extensive experience and a deep-rooted history, we collaborate exclusively with partners who uphold high-quality standards, ensuring a consistent level of quality and flavor in all our branches. To provide the best service to our customers, we oversee all processes, from the opening of our branches to staff selection, training, and management, all from our central office. This way, each ÇİTLEKÇİ branch operates with the same standards and values, delivering a consistent experience to our customers.
