Who We Are
•
Our core competence lies in correctly positioning our brands in the market while we comply with to
their global image but also customize the related framework culturally.
•
Our competitive edge lies in our long term relationships with our clients and our flawless customer
service.
•
We can make effective marketing strategies and utilize our marketing budget very efficiently and
thus can get the best possible return from our marketing expenses.
•
Through our Inventory Management and CRM System, we can follow our customers‟ orders and
their ordering patterns carefully and we can estimate their needs in advance and so increase their
order repetitions during the season.
•
As a result of our effective selling strategies and successful sales team we can achieve remarkable
quantities in sales.
•
Turkuaz has a reputable name in the market and as a result we do business with all of the Chain
Stores and A Class Stores in Turkey. In the upper segment market, we state that there is not even
a single window that does not display at least one Turkuaz product.

•
We never compromise from business ethics, that is the main factor that we are recognized as a
trustworthy firm and that is how we maintain our sustainable success and growth in business.
•
We have always stayed out of the local house brand, refuse doing business in a part of the
market in which there is distorted illegal competition that we disapprove. Our resources and
expertise is focused not only to provide excellent service to provide satisfaction of our reputable
clients but also being principled and ethical whatsoever the money that we are loosing.
•
The global sales strategies of the brand are accepted as the main guidelines for our sales
planning.
•
Customizing some points is mandatory in order to convey the global success of the brands into
the domestic market. One of the distinct example is that the sales approach shall be directed to
the owner of the retail store. As most of the optical stores are family businesses in Turkey it
requires personal and close relationships. Timur Saglam‟s professional background and his
family‟s reputable name in this sector contributes to the company‟s success.
•
Due to the lack of basic college education in the field, the trainings we provide for our customers
may prove less effective and therefore we have to repeat trainings periodically. We regularly
invite our customers to our office and brief them about the fashion trends, models,
specifications, technical details and the new collections enabling them to interact with each
other.
