The fact that Turkey is among all these countries is a separate source of pride for us.

As a brand, we work tirelessly to introduce Turkish cuisine and Turkish coffee to the whole world with the innovative products we produce. For this reason, we are very happy to support our chefs and restaurants by sponsoring such a night. I believe that we will reap the fruits of the collective efforts that all of us, regardless of their size, will make.
