Can you give us information about Gök-Bora Lojistik and your logistics infrastructure?
Sefa Ezgin: As Gök-Bora Lojistik, we provide custom clearance, warehousing and distribution services since the day our company has been established in 1983. In addition to this, we are able to provide services to our customers with affordable prices thanks to our more than 33 years of experience and our vehicle park, consisting of 800 vehicles, allow the transport of different types of cargoes. We provide mainly international road transportation and warehousing services as well as distribution services, air, maritime cargo and project transportation. We have regional offices in Bursa, Izmir, Adana and Istanbul Anatolian side as well as our head office in Haramidere (Istanbul), and branches in Ankara, Çerkezköy and Gök-Bora Airport Contact Office. We provide bonded and unbonded warehousing and safe stocking services for textile, food, and general goods with our indoor and outdoor warehouses extending an area of 110,000 sqm in total. Also we offer barcoding, quality control, repackaging, labeling, assembly, packaging, and similar value-added services.
Our goal as Gök-Bora Lojistik is to extinguish our company from our competitors by continually improving ourselves in many aspects. For example, we can manage all of our customers' needs and demands in one shop. This is one of the important issues that companies, looking for logistics solutions, pay attention to. We manage all or part of the processes in line with their needs. The companies receiving logistics services are having problems with delays in deliveries, damage to products and continuous increase in prices. We provide support and solutions to our customers by avoiding such problems.

Adhering to the principle of "Customer always comes first", offering best services, at a low cost and maximum quality to our customers. We kept this promise and we will continue to keep it.

Gök-Bora Air-Sea Cargo Manager Gizem Çak tells us that the company has been offering import and export services since 1996 as "Gök-Bora Hava Kargo", and adds: "I can say that the imports are the locomotive of our transportation operations. We are importing goods from the Far East, too, parallel to the world's trade flows. We regularly provide weekly service to the electronics and textile sectors. In the field of export which supports imports, our activities continue regularly. As a country we have left behind a dynamic year. Thus, we closed the year 2016 calmly and stably. We started the year 2017 good. Hoping that everything will be better, we are marching on our path without slowing down."
