Your trusted foreign trade partner in Türkiye

Want to buy products from Türkiye or have them manufactured here?

About us

A partner who knows every stage of foreign trade

ARTAĞAN Dijital Pazarlama İç ve Dış Ticaret A.Ş. was founded in Antalya, Türkiye on 11 May 2022. We are a trusted foreign trade company specialised in export and import.

We organise the requests of companies that want to buy from or manufacture in Türkiye and carry out the work as their representative in Türkiye. We find the right manufacturer, manage price and contract, and follow production and quality on site. We handle customs, freight, insurance and letters of credit professionally and track the shipment to its destination.

Our clients work with one contact instead of dealing separately with suppliers, forwarders and banks, and without needing to travel to Türkiye. We build on transparency, on-time delivery and long-term relationships.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does ARTAGAN do?

We organise the requests of companies that want to buy from or manufacture in Türkiye and, as their representative in Türkiye, carry out sourcing, production follow-up, customs, freight, insurance, letters of credit and the export-import operation through to delivery.

Do you work with letters of credit (L/C)?

Which product categories do you handle?

We have no sector restrictions. We organise sourcing and manufacturing in Türkiye for FMCG, food, personal care, cleaning, textiles, home goods, building materials, machinery and every other sector.

Which countries do you export to?

We have no geographical restrictions. We serve every country in the world, including Europe, the Americas, the Gulf and Middle East, Africa and Asia.

Can you produce private label products?

Yes. Together with our manufacturing partners we organise private label production under the buyer's own brand, including packaging and label design.

How do you verify suppliers?

We check trade-registry and tax records, production capacity, certificates and export history, and visit the factory when needed. We confirm whether it is a real manufacturer or a trading company.

How do you carry out quality control?

We inspect against your approved reference sample using the international AQL sampling standard (ISO 2859-1), during production and before shipment. You get a photo report after each inspection, and nothing is loaded without your approval.

Will my information stay confidential?

Yes. Your product, price and supplier information is never shared with third parties, and we sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) on request.
