By making agreements with world-famous fast food chains, we started special productions and became one of the largest pickle suppliers.

The production area of our factory was increased to 25 thousand m2 and the annual vegetable processing capacity was increased to 8 thousand tons.

We opened the www.tursu.com.tr page in order to offer our Berrak brand for sale on the internet.

We also offered sales of our Berrak brand on Hepsiburada.com, n11.com and Getir. With the orders we received from all over the world, our capacity increased to 9000 tons. In the same year, we started treatment sponsorships for veterinarians and clinics through HAYTAP (Animal Rights Federation) to support the treatment of orphaned animals by saying “All Souls are One”.

Zeytursan became the sole pickle supplier of one of the world’s largest fast-food chain restaurants in Europe, Africa and the Middle East, excluding Germany. It increased its production capacity to 15,000 tons of vegetables per year.

We succeeded in producing BERRAK PICKLE JUICE, which is one of our dreams, a traditional Turkish drink, and one of the healthiest sports drinks today. Our new product, which has taken its place on MİGROS shelves as spicy and plain, is of course also pasteurized, additive-free and preservative-free.
